Safety Precautions 7
Introduction
When the equipment is installed in a cabinet or on a shelf, make sure that it
has sufficient space on all sides to allow for ventilation (10 cm (3-15/16″)
or more on both sides, on top and at the rear). Do not block the ventilation
holes. (If the ventilation holes are blocked by a newspaper, or cloth etc. the
heat may not be able to get out.) No naked flame sources, such as lighted
candles, should be placed on the apparatus. When discarding batteries,
environmental problems must be considered and the local rules or laws
governing the disposal of these batteries must be followed strictly.
.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and that no
objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
.
Do not point the lens directly into the sun. This can cause eye injuries, as
well as lead to the malfunctioning of internal circuitry. There is also a risk
of fire or electric shock. CAUTION! The following notes concern possible
physical damage to this unit and to the user. Carrying or holding this unit by
the LCD monitor can result in dropping the unit, or in a malfunction. Do not
use a tripod on unsteady or unlevel surfaces. It could tip over, causing
serious damage to the unit. CAUTION! Connecting cables (Audio/Video, etc.) to
this unit and leaving it on top of the TV is not recommended, as tripping on
the cables will cause the unit to fall, resulting in damage.
