Safety Notices
CAUTION:
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE ANY COVER. NO USER-
SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY.
DANGEROUS VOLTAGE:
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within the equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage”
within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock.
INSTRUCTIONS:
The exclamation point within the equilateral triangle is intended to alert the
user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing)
instructions in the literature accompanying this appliance.
CAUTION (for U.S.A. & CANADIAN models only):
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT USE THIS (POLARIZED) PLUG WITH AN EXTENSION
CORD, RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADES CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO
PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.
NOTICE CONCERNING LASER PRODUCTS:
DANGER: INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN OPEN AND INTERLOCK FAILED OR DEFEATED.
AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO BEAM. USE OF CONTROLS OR ADJUSTMENTS OTHER THAN THOSE
SPECIFIED HEREIN MAY RESULT IN HAZARDOUS RADIATION EXPOSURE.
NOTICE CONCERNING FCC REGULATIONS:
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
part responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment. 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
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance 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 equipment does cause harmful
interference 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: (a) reorient or
relocate the receiving antenna; (b) move this unit; (c) increase the
separation between the equipment and receiver; (d) connect the equipment into
an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected;
(e) be sure that all cables are properly shielded, using a choke or ferrite
where appropriate; or (f) consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/television technician for help. This equipment should be installed and
operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body.
For Canadian models:
This device contains license-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply
with Innovation, Science and Economic Development (ISED) Canada’s license-
exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this
device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the
device. Under ISED regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using
an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter
by ISED. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna
type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically
radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful
communication. This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification
number, or model number if Category II) has been approved by ISED to operate
with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and
required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not
included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated
for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. This unit
does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emission from digital
apparatus set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian
Department of Communications. This device operates on a no-protection, no-
interference basis. Should the user seek to obtain protection from other radio
services operating in the same TV bands, a radio licence is required. For
further details, consult Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s
document Client Procedures Circular CPC-2-1-28, Voluntary Licensing of
Licence-Exempt Low-Power Radio Apparatus in the TV Bands.
Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with ISED radiation exposure limits set forth for
an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated
with greater than 20 cm between the radiator & your body.
For wireless products supporting the 5G frequency band (if applicable):
Usage of the 5.15–5.25 GHz band are restricted to indoor operation only. This
applies to the following countries: AT, BE, BG, CZ, DK, EE, FR, DE, IS, IE,
IT, EL, ES, CY, LV, LI, LT, LU, HU, MT, NL, NO, PL, PT, RO, SI, SK, TR, FI,
SE, CH, UK, HR. For 240-volt use in U.K., use NEMA®-style 240-volt plug. For
other countries use proper plug for local outlet.
SD/EFT Warning:
This unit may contain a microcomputer for signal processing and control
functions. In very rare situations, severe interference, noise from an
external source, or static electricity may cause it to lock up. In the
unlikely event that this should happen, turn off the unit, wait at least five
seconds, and then turn it back on again. The pins of connectors identified
with this ESD warning symbol should not be touched.
Correct Disposal of This Product:
This marking indicates that this product should not be disposed with other
household wastes throughout the EU. To prevent possible harm to the
environment or human health from uncontrolled waste disposal, recycle it
responsibly to promote the sustainable reuse of material resources. To return
your used device, please use the return and collection systems or contact the
retailer where the product was purchased. They can take this product for
environmentally safe recycling.
If apparatus contains a coin/button-cell battery:
Warning: Do not ingest the battery—chemical burn hazard. The remote control
supplied with this product contains a coin/button-cell battery. If the coin
/button-cell battery is swallowed, it can cause severe internal burns in just
2 hours and can lead to death. Keep new and used batteries away from children.
Tell others about the risk associated with button batteries and how to keep
their children safe. If the battery compartment does not close securely, stop
using the product and keep it away from children. If you think batteries might
have been swallowed or placed inside any part of the body, seek immediate
medical attention. Dispose of used button batteries immediately and safely.
Flat batteries can still be dangerous.
Disposal of Batteries (if applicable):
Never dispose of any types of batteries in fire or near excessive heat or
direct sunlight. Overheated batteries can rupture or explode. If you are
unsure of how or where to dispose of a battery, refer to your local ordinances
for the proper location, method, etc.
- Alkaline batteries & lithium button cell batteries: You can safely dispose of alkaline and lithium button cell batteries with normal household waste. They do not pose a health or environmental risk during normal use or disposal. (Alkaline batteries are composed primarily of common metals like steel, zinc, and manganese.) Do not dispose of large amounts of alkaline or lithium button cell batteries in a group. Used batteries are often not completely “dead.” Grouping them together can bring these “live” batteries into contact with one another, creating safety risks. To avoid this, insulate each battery with tape or other non-conductive material to ensure it does not discharge. Proven cost-effective and environmentally safe recycling processes are not yet universally available for alkaline and lithium button cell batteries. Some communities offer recycling or collection of these batteries. For more information, refer to your local ordinances or contact your local government.
- Lead-acid batteries: Dispose of lead-acid batteries by bringing them to an electronic waste center or recycling center, or dispose of them in accordance with your local ordinances. (Rechargeable lead-acid batteries are the same type used in automobiles and should be disposed of in a similar fashion.)
