Precautions
Important Safety Warnings
[Power]
Caution
Operate unit only on the specified supplyvoltage.
Disconnect power cord by connector only. Do not pull on cable portion.
Stop
Do not place or drop heavy or sharp-edged objects on power cord. A damaged cord
can cause fire or electrical shock hazards. Regularly check power cord for
excessive wear or damage to avoid possible fire / electrical hazards.
[Grounding]
Caution
Ensure unit is properly grounded at all times to prevent electrical shock hazard.
Hazard
Do not ground the unit to gas lines, units, or fixtures of an explosive or dangerous
nature.
Caution
Ensure power cord is firmly plugged into ACoutlet.
[Operation]
Hazard
Do not operate unit under hazardous or potentially explosive atmosphere
conditions. Doing so could result in fire, explosion, or other dangerousresults.
Hazard
Do not allow liquids, metal pieces, or other foreign materials to enter the unit. Doing
so could result in fire, other hazards, or unitmalfunction.
If a foreign material does enter the unit, turn the power off and immediately
disconnect the power cord . Remove the material and contact an authorized service
representative if damage hasoccurred.
[Transportation]
Caution
Handle with care to avoid impact shock in transit, which may cause malfunction.
When you need to transpo rt the unit, use t he original or adequate packing material.

[Circuitry Access]
Do not remove covers, panels, casing, or access the circuitry with power applied to
the unit! Turn the power off and disconnect the power cord prior to removal. Internal
servicing / adjustment of unit should only be performed by qualified personnel.
Stop
Do not touch any parts / circuitry with a high heatfactor.
Capacitors can retain enough electric charge to cause mild to serious shock, even
after the power has been disconnected. Capacitors associated with the power
supply are especially hazardous. Avoid contact with any capacitors.
Hazard
Unit should not be operated or stored with cover, panels, and / or casing removed.
Operating unit with circuitry exposed could result in electric shock / fire hazards or
unitmalfunction.
[Potential Hazards]
[Rack Mount Brackets, Ground Terminal, and Rubber Feet]
[Consumables]
Caution
Consumable items that are used in the unit must be periodically replaced . For
further details on which pa rt s are consumables and when they should be replaced,
refer to the specifications at the end of the Operation Manual. Since the service life
of consumables varies greatly depending on the environmen t in which they are
used, such items should be replaced at an early date. For details on replacing
consumable items, contac t your dealer .
Caution
To rack-mount or ground the unit, or to install rubber feet, do not use screws or
materials other than those supplied. Otherwise, doing so may cause damage to the
internal circuitry or components of the unit. If you remove the rubber feet that are
attached to the unit, do not reinsert the screws securing the rubber feet.
Caution
If abnormal odors or noises are noticed coming from the unit, immediately turn t he
power off and disconnect the power cord to avoid potentially hazardous conditions.
If problems similar to the above occur, contact an authorized service representative
before attempting to operate the unit again.
