tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool.
5. Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing serious
damage to the product.
6. Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation; to protect it from
overheating, these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked
by placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This product should never be placed
near or over a radiator or other heat source. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation
unless proper ventilation is provided.
7. This product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the product label. If
you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. This product is equipped with a 3-wire earthing type plug, a plug having a third (earthing) pin. This plug
will only fit into an earthing type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the earthing type plug.
9. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product where the cord will be
abused by people walking on it.
10. Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in the risk of fire or electric shock.
11. Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk of fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of
any kind on the product.
12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not disassemble this product, but take it to a qualified person
when some service or repair work is required. Opening or removing covers may expose you to
dangerous voltages or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric shock when the appliance
is subsequently used.
13. Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
a) When the power supply cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
b) If liquid has been spilled into the product.
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water.

restore the product to normal operation.

f) If the product exhibits a distinct change in performance.
14. Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote
