Safety precautions

Placement

Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct sunlight, high

unit and cause a fire.

Do not use a DC power source. Check the source carefully when

setting the unit up on a ship or other place where DC is used.

AC mains lead protection

Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly and not

damaged. Poor connection and lead damage can cause fire or

electric shock. Do not pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.

Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead. Pulling the AC

disconnect the AC mains lead and contact your dealer or an

authorized service center. Electric shock or damage to the unit can

occur if the unit is repaired, disassembled or reconstructed by

unqualified persons.
