Safety warnings and Cautions
The following are warnings and cautions for the safety of the users and for the prevention of any property damage. Please read the following
carefully.
WARNING
• Turn o the system before installation. Do not plug in several electric devices to the same outlet.
-This may cause heating, re, or electric shock.
• Do not place any liquid container on the system, such as water, coee, or other beverage.
-If liquid is poured onto the system, it can cause a system breakdown or re.
• Prevent the power cable from being severely bent or having pressure exerted on it by a heavy object.
-This may cause re.
• Clean the dust around the system on a regular basis. When cleaning the system, always use a dry cloth. Do not use a wet cloth or other
organic
solvents.
-This may damage the surface of the system and can cause a system breakdown or electric shock.
• Avoid any place with moisture, dust, or soot.
-This can cause re or electric shock.
• When pulling the power cable from the plug, do so gently. Do not touch the plug with wet hands and avoid using the plug if the holes in
the outlet are too loose.
-This may cause re or electric shock.
• Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the system on your own. It is extremely dangerous due to the high voltage running
through the system.
-This may cause re, electric shock, or serious injury.
• Check for any danger signs such as a moist oor, a loosened or damaged power cable, or an unstable surface. If you encounter any
problems, ask your dealer for assistance.
-This may cause re or electric shock.
• Keep a distance of at least 15cm between the back of the system and the wall for the cables connected to the system otherwise, they may
be bent, damaged, or cut.
-This may cause re, electric shock, or injury.
• Install the system in a cool place without direct sunlight and always maintain room temperature. Avoid candlelight and heat generating
devices such as heaters. Keep the system away from places where many people pass.
-This may cause re.
• Install the system on a plain surface with sucient air ventilation. Do not place the system on an elevated surface.
-This may cause system breakdown or serious injury.
• The power outlet must be placed on the ground, and the voltage range must be within 10% of the voltage rate. Do not use the same
outlet with a hair dryer, iron, refrigerator, or any heating appliances.
-This may cause re, over heating or electric shock.
