Safety precautions

Placement
Set the unit up on an even surface away from direct
sunlight, high temperatures, high humidity, and
excessive vibration. These conditions can damage
the cabinet and other components, thereby
shortening the unit's service life.

Voltage
Do not use high voltage power sources. This can
overload the unit and cause a fire.
Do not use a DC power source. Check the source
carefully when setting the unit up on a ship or other
places where DC is used.
AC mains lead protection
Ensure the AC mains lead is connected correctly
and not damaged. Poor connection and lead
damage can cause fire or electric shock. Do not
pull, bend, or place heavy items on the lead.
Grasp the plug firmly when unplugging the lead.
Pulling the AC mains lead can cause electric shock.
Do not handle the plug with wet hands. This can
cause electric shock.
