    Safety Information

    Important Safety Instructions
    When used in the directed manner, this unit has been designed and manufactured to ensure your personal
    safety. However, improper use can result in potential electrical shock or fire hazards. Please read all safety
    and operating instructions carefully before installation and use, and keep these instructions handy for
    future reference. Take special note of all warnings listed in this user’s manual and on the unit.

    1.    Cleaning - Unplug the unit from the wall outlet before cleaning. Clean the unit using a damp cloth;
          do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
    2.    Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
    3.    Water and Moisture - The unit should not be used near water. For example: near a bathtub,
          washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, swimming pool or in a wet basement.
    4.    Placement - Do not place the unit on an unstable table, stand, tripod, or bracket. This may result in
          serious personal injuries and damage to the unit.
    5.    Ventilation - The unit should be situated so that its location or position does
          not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, it should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug
          or similar surface that may block ventilation openings. Also, it should not be placed in a built-in
          installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet, which may impede the flow of air through the ventilation
          openings.
    6.    Periods of Non-use - If the unit is to be left unused for an extended period of
          time, such as a month or longer, the power cable should be unplugged from the unit to prevent damage
          or corrosion.
    7.    Objects and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that external objects do not fall into and
          liquids are not spilled onto any openings or vents located on the product.
    8.    Power Source - The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in
          the operating instructions or as marked on the unit. If you are not sure, please consult the dealer or
          local power company.
    9.    Power Cord protection - Power supply cord should be routed so that it is not likely to be
          walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. It is always better to have a clear area
          from where the cable exits the unit to where it is plugged into an AC outlet.
    10.    Lightning - Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system
           during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time. This will
           prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.
    11.    Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles
           as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
    12.    Heat - The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves
           or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
    13.    Damage Requiring Service - The unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
           A. the power supply cable or plug has been damaged.
           B. objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled onto the enclosure.
           C. the unit has been exposed to rain.
           D. the unit has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
           E. the unit exhibits a marked change in performance or does not operate normally.
    14.    Servicing - The user should not attempt to service the unit beyond those methods described in


Page 6


Safety Information

    the user’s manual. Opening or removing covers will expose you to dangerous voltage and other
    hazards. Service methods not covered in the user’s manual should be referred to qualified service
    personnel.
15. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repair to the unit, ask the service technician to
    perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper working condition.
16. Built-In-Battery Care - This device contains a rechargeable Lithium ion battery. The battery can
    be charged and discharged hundreds of times. Unplug the charger from the electrical outlet
    and product when not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a charger, since
    overcharging may shorten its lifetime. Leaving the product in hot or cold places will reduce the
    capacity and lifetime of the battery.
