Important Safeguards

In addition to the careful attention devoted to quality standards in the manufacturing process of your product, safety is a major factor in the design of
every instrument. However, safety is your responsibility too. This sheet lists
important information that will help to ensure your enjoyment and proper use
of the product and accessory equipment. Please read them carefully before
operating and using your product.
1.1 General Precautions
1. All warnings and instructions in this manual should be followed.
2. Remove the plug from the outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid aerosol
detergents. Use a water-dampened cloth for cleaning.
3. Do not use this product in humid or wet places.
4. Keep enough space around the product for ventilation. Slots and openings
in the storage cabinet should not be blocked.
5. It is highly recommended to connect the product to a surge protector to
protect from damage caused by electrical surges. It is also recommended
to connect the product to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), which
has an internal battery that will keep the product running in the event of a
power outage.
CAUTION
Maintain electrical safety. Power line operated equipment or accessories connected to this
product should bear the UL listing mark or CSA certification mark on the accessory itself
and should not be modified so as to defeat the safety features. This will help avoid any potential hazard from electrical shock or fire. If in doubt, contact qualified service personnel.

1.2 Installation
1. Read and Follow Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions
should be read before the product is operated. Follow all operating
instructions.
2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
3. Heed Warnings - Comply with all warnings on the product and in the operating instructions.

#; r. 1.0/21073/21073; en-US

Important Safeguards

4. Polarization - 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.
5. Power Sources - This product should be operated only from the type of
power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type
of power supplied to your location, consult your video dealer or local
power company. For products intended to operate from battery power, or
other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
6. Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can
result in the risk of fire or electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, damaged or cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They may result in a shock or fire hazard. Periodically examine the cord, and if its appearance indicates damage or
deteriorated insulation, have it replaced by your service technician.
7. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that
they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or
against them. Pay particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
8. Surge Protectors - It is highly recommended that the product be connected to a surge protector. Doing so will protect the product from damage
caused by power surges. Surge protectors should bear the UL listing mark
or CSA certification mark.

#; r. 1.0/21073/21073; en-US

Important Safeguards

9. Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) - Because this product is designed for continuous, 24/7 operation, it is recommended that you connect

event of a power outage. Uninterruptible power supplies should bear the
UL listing mark or CSA certification mark.

ensure reliable operation of the product and 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
heat register. This product should not be placed in a built-in installation
such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided and the
product manufacturers instructions have been followed.
