~~
Before using this unit please read these operating instructions carefully.
Take special care to follow the warnings indicated on the unit itself as well
as the safety suggestions listed below.
Afterwards keep them handy for future reference.
Safety
1. Power Source—The unit should be connected to power supply only
of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on
the unit.
2. Polarization—If the unit is equipped with a polarized AC power plug
(a plug having one blade wider than the other), that plug will fit into
the AC outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If
the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug.
3. Power Cord Protection—AC power supply cords should be routed
so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items
placed upon or against them. Never take hold of the plug or cord if
your hand is wet, and always grasp the plug body when connecting
or disconnecting it.
4. Nonuse Periods—When the unit is not used, turn the power off.
When left unused for a long period of time, the unit should be
unplugged from the household AC outlet.

If moisture forms inside this unit, it may not operate properly. To cor-
rect this problem, turn on the power and wait about one hour for the
