(1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND
(2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED,
INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED
OPERATION.
The lightning flash with arrowhead, within an equilateral tri-
angle is intended to alert the user of the presence of
uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's
enclosure; that may be of sufficient magnitude to consti-
tute a risk of electric shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intend-
ed to alert the user of the presence of important operating
and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature
accompanying the appliance.
