Cautions
•
Allow enough free space around the unit for normal ventilation. This should be: 10 cm at the
sides, and 10 cm behind.
These distances should also be adopted when rack-mounting the unit. For normal ventilation
during use, remove the rear of the rack or open a ventilation hole.
If the airflow is not adequate, the unit will heat up inside and may cause a fire.
•
Keep this unit away from the following locations:
— Locations exposed to oil splashes or steam, such as near cooking stoves, humidifiers, etc.
— Unstable surfaces, such as a wobbly table or slope.
— Locations exposed to excessive heat, such as inside a car with all the windows closed, or
places that receive direct sunlight.
— Locations subject to excessive humidity or dust accumulation.
•
This unit has ventilation holes at the top, and bottom to prevent the internal temperature
rising too high. Do not block them. Blocked ventilation holes are a fire hazard.
