uneven surfaces which may cause the product and cart to overturn, damaging equipment or causing
possible injury to the operator.
– Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. These ensure reliable operation of the
product and protect it from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or covered. (The openings should never
be blocked by placing the product on bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface. It should not be placed in a built-in installation
such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided and the manufacturer’s instructions have been
