Safety Precautions
The safety precautions listed below are intended to ensure your safety when-
ever you use the Real Deal.
NEVER OPEN THE CASE - Never try to separate the two pieces of the
chassis from one another and/or modify the equipment. Opening this de-
vice will effectively void the warranty.
STOP USE IN CASE OF PROBLEM - Stop using the equipment if ever
you should notice smoke or a strange odor coming from it.
Contact [email protected] for service.
AVOID HIGH TEMPERATURES & HEAT BUILD UP - Never cover the
power supply with cloth or other objects. Built up heat creates a danger
of equipment deformation and fire. Do not expose the Real Deal to direct
sunlight, heating devices, or other extreme temperatures.
USE SPECIFIED POWER ADAPTER ONLY - Be sure to use only the 18-
Volt DC 300mA Adapter that came with your Pigtronix Real Deal.
DO NOT EXPOSE TO WATER/BEER - To reduce the risk of fire or electric
shock, do not expose your Real Deal to rain or moisture. If water gets inside
the unit, turn off the power.
