Important Battery Precautions
•  Any battery may present a risk 

of fi re, explosion, or chemical 
burn if abused. Do not try to 
charge a battery that is not 
intended to be recharged, do 
not incinerate, and do not 
puncture.

• Non-rechargeable batteries, 

such as alkaline batteries, may 
leak if left in your product for 
a long period of time. Remove 
the batteries from the product 
if you are not going to use it 
for a month or more.

•  If your product uses more 

than one battery, do not mix 
types and make sure they are 
inserted correctly. Mixing types 
or inserting incorrectly may 
cause them to leak.

•  Discard any leaky or deformed 

battery immediately. They 
may cause skin burns or other 
personal injury.

•  Batteries shall not be exposed 

to excessive heat such as sun-
shine, fi re or the like.

•  Please help to protect the 

environment by recycling or 
disposing of batteries accord-
ing to federal, state, and local 
regulations.

Some of the following informa-
tion may not apply to your par-
ticular product; however, as with 
any electronic product, precau-
tions should be observed during 
handling and use.
•  Read these instructions.
•  Keep these instructions.
•  Heed all warnings.
•  Follow all instructions.
•  Do not use this apparatus near 

water.

•  Clean only with dry cloth.
•  Do not block any ventilation 

openings. Install in accordance 
with the manufacturer’s in-
structions.

•  Do not install near any heat 

sources such as radiators, heat 
registers, stoves, or other ap-
paratus (including amplifi ers) 
that produce heat.

•  Do not defeat the safety 

purpose of the polarized or 
grounding-type plug. A polar-
ized plug has two blades with 
one wider than the other. A 
grounding type plug has two 
blades and a third grounding 
prong. The wide blade or the 
third prong is provided for 
your safety. If the provided 

plug does not fi t into your 
outlet, consult an electrician 
for replacement of the obso-
lete outlet.

•  Protect the power cord from 

being walked on or pinched 
particularly at plugs, conve-
nience receptacles, and the 
point where they exit from the 
apparatus.

•  Only use attachments/accesso-

ries specifi ed by the manufac-
turer.

•  Use only with the 

cart, stand, tri-
pod, bracket, or 
table specifi ed by 
the manufacturer, 
or sold with the 
apparatus. When 
a cart is used, use caution 
when moving the cart/appara-
tus combination to avoid injury 
from tip-over.

•  Unplug this apparatus during 

lightning storms or when un-
used for long periods of time.

•  Refer all servicing to qualifi ed 

service personnel. Servicing is 
required when the apparatus 
has been damaged in any way, 
such as power-supply cord or 

plug is damaged, liquid has 
been spilled or objects have 
fallen into the apparatus, the 
apparatus has been exposed 
to rain or moisture, does not 
operate normally, or has been 
dropped.

•  IF YOUR PRODUCT OPERATES 

ON BATTERIES, adhere to the 
following precautions:

  A. Any battery may leak 

electrolyte if mixed with a dif-
ferent battery type, if inserted 
incorrectly, or if all batteries 
are not replaced at the same 
time.

  B. Any battery may leak elec-

trolyte or explode if disposed 
of in fi re or an attempt is 
made to charge a battery not 
intended to be recharged.

  C. Discard leaky batteries 

immediately. Leaking batter-
ies can cause skin burns or 
other personal injury. When 
discarding batteries, be sure to 
dispose of them in the proper 
manner, according to provin-
cial and local regulations.

FCC information

This device complies with part 15 of 
the FCC Rules. Operation is subject 
to the following two conditions: (1) 
This device may not cause harmful 
interference, and (2) this device must 
accept any interference received, in-
cluding interference that may cause 
undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and 
found to comply with the limits for 
a Class B digital device, pursuant to 
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits 
are designed to provide reasonable 
protection against harmful interfer-
ence in a residential installation. 
This equipment generates, uses and 
can radiate radio frequency energy 
and, if not installed and used in ac-
cordance with the instructions, may 
cause harmful interference to radio 
communications. 
However, there is no guarantee 
that interference will not occur in a 
particular installation. If this equip-
ment does cause harmful interfer-
ence to radio or television reception, 
which can be determined by turning 
the equipment off and on, the user 
is encouraged to try to correct the 
interference by one or more of the 
following measures: 
–  Reorient or relocate the receiving 

antenna. 

–  Increase the separation between 

the equipment and receiver. 

–  Connect the equipment into an out-

let on a circuit different from that 
to which the receiver is connected. 

This product complies with DHHS 
Rules 21 CFR Subchapter J.  Appli-
cable at the date of manufacture.

For your safety 

The AC power plug is 
polarized (one blade is 
wider than the other) 
and only fi ts into AC 
power outlets one way. 
If the plug won’t go 
into the outlet completely, turn the 
plug over and try to insert it the 
other way. If it still won’t fi t, contact 
a qualifi ed electrician to change the 
outlet, or use a different one. Do not 
attempt to bypass this safety feature. 

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC 
SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF 
PLUG TO WIDE SLOT, FULLY INSERT.
