4. Dispose of old battery in accordance with the manufacturer of the battery.
General Warning
Warning
1. Use the power cord, which is supplied or recommended by the manufacturer. Failure to do so could cause
a fire.
2. Use the power transformer, which is supplied or recommended by the manufacturer. Failure to do so
could cause a fire.
3. Do not dismantle or assemble the product. Doing so could cause malfunction or fire.
4. Service should only be done by manufacturer or authorized vendor. Electrical shock or fire could result if
repair is not done properly.
5. Do not touch product with wet hands as electric shock may occour.
6. Product must be installed by a qualified professional. Failure to do so could result in malfunction,
electrical shock or fire.
7. Consult the place of purchase if the need for installation arises. Poor installation could cause
malfunction, electric shock or fire.
8. Ground applies to video products equipped with a 3-wire grounding type plug having a third (grounding)
pin. This plug only fits into a grounding type power outlet. If grounding is not done, equipment malfunc
tion or electric shock may occur.
9. Ground connection must not touch gas pipe, water pipe or telephone lines.
10.Prevent foreign metallic substance from going inside the product. Failure to do so could result in mal
function or electric shock.
11. Prevent water or other liquids from entering inside the product. Use damp cloth to clean outside of
