9
Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,  
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type  
plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A  
grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The  
wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the  
provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for  
replacement of the obsolete outlet.  
10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly  
at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from  
the apparatus.  
11 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
12 Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table  
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.  
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/  
apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.  
13 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when  
unused for long periods of time.  
14 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required  
when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as  
power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or  
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been  
exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been  
dropped.  
15 To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this device to  
rain, moisture, dripping, or splashing, and no objects filled with liquids,  
such as vases, shall be placed on it.  
16 An apparatus with a three-prong, grounding-type plug is a Class I  
apparatus, which needs to be grounded to prevent possible electric  
shock. Make sure that you connect this Class I device to a  
grounding-type, three-prong outlet.
