INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES

Le symbole représentant un éclair fléché dans un triangle équilatéral a pour but 
d'alerter l'utilisateur de la présence d'une "tension dangereuse" non isolée à 
l'intérieur du boîtier, pouvant être d'une force suffisante pour constituer un risque 
d'électrocution.

Le point d'exclamation dans un triangle équilatéral a pour but d'alerter 
l'utilisateur de la présence d'instructions importantes concernant le 
fonctionnement et la maintenance, dans la documentation qui accompagne 
l'appareil.

1

Veuillez lire ces instructions.

2

Conservez ces instructions.

3

Respectez toutes les consignes de 
sécurité.

4

Suivez scrupuleusement toutes les 
instructions.

5

N'utilisez pas cet appareil près d'un point 
d'eau.

6

Utilisez uniquement un chiffon sec pour le 
nettoyer.

7

N'obstruez aucune des ouïes de 
ventilation. Installez-le en respectant les 
instructions du fabricant.

8

Ne l'installez pas près de sources de 
chaleur tels que radiateurs, panneaux 
chauffants, étuves, ou autres appareils  
produisant de la chaleur (dont les 
amplificateurs).

9

Ne pas utiliser d'adaptateur pour 
supprimer la prise de terre des prises à 
trois fiches. Si la prise fournie ne peut pas 
être branchée dans la prise électrique, 
adressez-vous à un électricen qui 
remplacera la prise obsolète.

10

Protégez le cordon secteur afin que l'on ne 
marche pas dessus et qu'il ne soit pas 
pincé, surtout au niveau des prises, ou à   
l'endroit où il sort de l'appareil.

11

Utilisez exclusivement des fixations et des 
accessoires recommandés par le fabricant.

12

Utilisez l'appareil uniquement 
avec le chariot, le trépied, le 
support ou la table spécifiés 
par le fabricant, ou vendus 
avec  l'appareil. Si un chariot 
est utilisé, prenez toutes les précautions 
nécessaires lorsque vous devez déplacer 
l'ensemble (chariot et appareil) afin qu'ils 
ne se renversent pas.

13

Débranchez l'appareil en période d'orage 
ou s'il doit rester inutilisé pendant 
longtemps.

14

Confiez toutes les réparations et 
interventions à un personnel qualifié. Une 
intervention est nécessaire si l'appareil a 
été endommagé d'une façon ou d'une 
autre, si son cordon ou sa prise secteur 
ont été endommagés, si du liquide a été 
renversé ou si des objets sont tombés à 
l'intérieur, ou encore si l'appareil a été 
exposé à la pluie ou à l'humidité, s'il ne 
fonctionne pas normalement, ou s'il est 
tombé.

15

Débrancher l'appareil du réseau électrique 
par la prise de secteur.

16 Avertissement : afin de réduire le 

risque d'incendie ou de choc 
électrique, ne pas exposer cet 
appareil à la pluie ou à de l'humidité.

17 Avertissement : n'exposez pas cet 

équipement aux éclaboussures et 
veillez à ce qu'aucun récipient rempli 
de liquide, verre ou vase, ne soit posé 
dessus.

18 Avertissement : la prise secteur doit 

toujours rester directement 
accessible.
