To prevent electric shock, do not open the enclosure.
IMPORTANT!
This symbol alerts you to read and observe important warnings
and instructions on the unit or in this manual.
Electrical safety and cord handling
• To prevent contact with high voltage components
inside, do not attempt to open the equipment.
• Before installing this equipment, make sure your
outlet voltage corresponds to the voltage stated
on the appliance rating label.
• When connecting the equipment, align the plug
properly and insert it fully to prevent electric shock.
• Only use this equipment with the cord and plug supplied, and do not
overload the power outlet.
• If the power cord is damaged, do not use the equipment. The cord must
be replaced by the manufacturer or similarly qualified personnel in order to
avoid a hazard. Contact the after sales support line for advice.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this
equipment, the cord or plug to rain or moisture; do not use it anywhere
near water or where water splashes or drips; do not touch the plug with wet
hands. In the event that water or other liquids enter the device, unplug it
immediately and clean and dry it as best as possible. Then have it checked
for damage by a qualified technician, or contact the after sales support line.
• Do not repair the unit yourself. Only have it serviced by qualified personnel.

• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch any
hot surface. Do not allow anything to rest on or roll over the power cord,
and run any cords so that no one steps on or trips over them.
• Do not run the cord near heat-producing appliances such as radiators,
stoves or irons. Excessive heat could melt insulation and expose live wires.
• Always grasp the plug, not the cord, when disconnecting the unit. Pulling
the cord can damage the internal wires and may cause a fire.
• Do not install the unit in an inclined position. It is designed to be operated in
a horizontal position only.
Installation
• When installing the unit, make sure to place it:
• Away from heat sources, radiators or other products that produce heat.
• Away from areas with high temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight.
• Away from excess dirt and dust.
• Away from open windows and any place where water may get into the
unit and damage it.
• Make sure there is free circulation of air around the unit. Do not place it on a
thick carpet, bed or any place where ventilation holes are obstructed. Leave
at least 10cm clearance around the unit.
• Make sure the mains socket is readily accessible at all times.
Usage conditions and restrictions
• Openings on the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to protect the
unit from overheating. To ensure proper operation, do not cover them with
things such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains etc.
• Do not place heavy objects on top of the equipment or step on it.
• Do not place objects filled with water (such as vases) or any naked flame
sources (such as lit candles, incense sticks or cigarettes) on top of the unit.
• The equipment is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the equipment by a person responsible for their safety.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the
equipment. Close supervision is always necessary when an appliance is
used by or near children.

• Unplug the unit from the power outlet before cleaning. Clean the unit only
with a dry, clean cloth. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• We assume no liability for any damage caused by noncompliance with these
instructions or any other improper use or mishandling of the equipment.
Condensation
The unit may suffer from condensation in the following situations:
• When you take the unit directly from a cold to a warm place, and vice versa.
• When you use the unit in a room where you just turned on a heater, or where
cold air from an air conditioner is directed on to the unit.
• When you use the unit in hot and humid surrounds just after having moved it
from an air conditioned room.
• When the room is steamy or damp.
• If condensation exists, the unit will not operate properly. Remove the disc,
plug the power cord into the wall socket, turn on the unit and leave it for two
to three hours. After that time, the unit will have warmed up and any moisture
will have evaporated. Keeping the unit connected to the wall socket will keep
moisture condensation problems to a minimum.
