Always read and follow safety messages!
Your safety and the safety of others is very important. We have provided several important
safety messages in this owner’s manual. A safety message alerts you to a potential hazard and
instructs you on how to avoid or reduce the risk. Each safety message is preceded by a safety
alert symbol
.
Please carefully read and follow these important messages.

near an electrical (AC) outlet. The AC power cord is your
SCOUT’s
main AC disconnecting device and must be easily accessible at all times. For your
safety, the power cord provided with your system has a grounded plug. Always use the
power cord with a properly grounded wall outlet to avoid the risk of electrical shock.
AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK. Disconnect all power sources by unplugging the unit and
removing its internal battery before attempting any maintenance or service. Always
follow safe work practices to control hazardous electrical energy. Do not connect or
disconnect any cables or perform maintenance or reconfiguration of the

during
an electrical storm.

explode. Discard a used battery according to the manufacture’s instructions or contact
your local waste disposal agency for disposal instructions. Dispose of a spent or
damaged battery promptly.
