SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical components in this chassis have special safety-related characteristics.
These characteristics are often passed unnoticed by a visual inspection and the X-ray radiation
protection afforded by them cannot necessarily be obtained by using replacements rated at higher
voltages or wattage, etc. Components which have these special safety characteristics in this manual
and its supplements are identified by the international hazard symbols in the circuit diagram and parts
list. Before replacing any of these components read the parts list in this manual carefully. Substitute
replacement components which do not have the same safety characteristics as specified in the parts
list may create X-ray radiation.
