SOME DO’S AND
DON’TS ON THE SAFE
USE OF EQUIPMENT
This equipment has been designed and manufac-
tured to meet international safety standards but,
like any electrical equipment, care must be taken if
you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be
assured.
DO
read the operating instructions before you
attempt to use the equipment.
DO
ensure that all electrical connections (including
the mains plug, extension leads and intercon-
nections between pieces of equipment) are
properly made and in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions. Switch off and
withdraw the mains plug when making or
changing connections.
DO
consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt
about the installation, operation or safety of
your equipment.
DO
be careful with glass panels or doors on
equipment.
DON’T continue to operate the equipment if you are in
any doubt about it working normally, or if it is
damanged in any way — switch off, withdraw
the mains plug and consult your dealer.
DON’T remove any fixed cover as this may expose
dangerous voltages.
DON’T leave equipment switched on when it is
unattended unless it is specifically stated that it
is designed for unattended operation or has a
standby mode. Switch off using the switch on
the equipment and make sure that your family
knows how to do this. Special arrangements
may need to be made for infirm or handi-
capped people.
DON’T use equipment such as personal stereos or
radios so that you are distracted from the
requirements of road safety. It is illegal to watch
television whilst driving.
DON’T listen to headphones at high volume, as such
use can permanently damage your hearing.
DON’T obstruct the ventilation of the equipment, for
example with curtains or soft furnishings.
Overheating will cause damage and shorten the
life of the equipment.
DON’T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with
wood screws — to ensure complete safety
always fit the manufacturer’s approved stand or
legs with the fixings provided according to the
instructions.
DON’T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to
rain or moisture.
ABOVE ALL
— NEVER let anyone especially children push anything
into holes, slots or any other opening in the case —
this could result in a fatal electrical shock;
— NEVER guess or take chances with electrical
equipment of any kind — it is better to be safe than
sorry!
