Safety Symbol and Message Conventions
Safety symbols and messages described below are used
in this manual to prevent bodily injury and property damage
whichcouldresultfrommishandling.Beforeoperatingyour
product,readthismanualrstandunderstandthesafety
symbols and messages so you are thoroughly aware of the
potential safety hazards.
When Installing the Unit
• Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment
where it may be splashed by water or other liquids,
asdoingsomayresultinreorelectricshock.
• Use the unit only with the voltage specied on
the unit. Using a voltage higher than that which is
speciedmayresultinreorelectricshock.
• Do not cut, kink, otherwise damage nor modify
the power supply cord. In addition, avoid using the
powercordincloseproximitytoheaters,andnever
place heavy objects -- including the unit itself -- on
the power cord, as doing so may result in re or
electric shock.
• Avoid installing or mounting the unit in unstable
locations, such as on a rickety table or a slanted
surface. Doing so may result in the unit falling
down and causing personal injury and/or property
damage.
• Topreventlightningstrikes,installtheunitatleast
vemetersawayfromalightningrod,andyetwithin
the protective range (angle of 45°) of the lightning
conductor. Lightning strikes may cause a re,
electric shock or personal injury.
• Since the unit is designed for indoor use, do not
install it outdoors. If installed outdoors, the aging of
parts causes the unit to fall off, resulting in personal
injury. Also, when it gets wet with rain, there is a
danger of electric shock.
When the Unit is in Use
• Should the following irregularity be found during
use, immediately switch off the power, disconnect
the power supply plug from the AC outlet and
contact your nearest TOA dealer. Make no further
attempt to operate the unit in this condition as this
maycausereorelectricshock.
· If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming
from the unit.
· If water or any metallic object gets into the unit
· If the unit falls, or the unit case breaks
· Ifthepowersupplycordisdamaged(exposureof

· If it is malfunctioning (no tone sounds.)
• Topreventareorelectricshock,neveropennor
remove the unit case as there are high voltage
components inside the unit. Refer all servicing to
qualiedservicepersonnel.
• Do not place cups, bowls, or other containers of
liquid or metallic objects on top of the unit. If they

• Do not touch the plugs or antenna cables during
thunder and lightning, as this may result in electric
shock.

When Installing the Unit
• Never plug in nor remove the power supply plug
with wet hands, as doing so may cause electric
shock.
• Whenunpluggingthepowersupplycord,besureto
grasp the power supply plug; never pull on the cord
itself. Operating the unit with a damaged power
