When installing or inspecting the machine, be very careful of the following points and pay attention to ensure
that the player can enjoy the game safely.
The game must NOT be installed under the following conditions:
· Outside, the game is designed for indoor use only.
· In areas directly exposed to sunlight, high humidity, dust, excessive heat, or extreme cold.
· In locations that would present an obstacle in the case of an emergency i.e. near fire equipment or
emergency exits.
· On unstable surfaces or surfaces subject to vibration.
· Where liquids, other than routine cleaning, may come into contact with the game.
Important:
· Only Qualified Service Personnel should install this machine.
· Be sure to switch the supply power OFF and remove the mains supply plug from the machine before any
work is carried out on the machine.
· Do not attempt to repair the PCB’s (Printed Circuit Boards) yourself. This will void the warranty. The
PCB’s contain static sensitive devices that could be damaged.
· Always return a faulty part to your distributor with adequate packaging and protection.
· When removing the plug from the mains always grasp the plug not the cable.
