objects of any kind into the appliance through
openings as they may touch dangerous
voltage points or short-out parts that could
result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill
liquid of any kind on the appliance.

17. Servicing – Do not attempt to service the

appliance yourself as opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage
or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.

18. Damage Requiring Service – Unplug the

appliance form the wall outlet and refer servicing
to qualified service personnel under the
following conditions:
A. When the power-supply cord or plug is

damaged,

B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have

fallen into the appliance,

C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or

water,

D. If the appliance does not operate normally

by following the operating instructions.
Adjust only those controls that are covered
by the operating instructions as an
improper adjustment of other controls may
result in damage and will often require
extensive work by a qualified technician
to restore the appliance to its normal
operation,

E. If the appliance has been dropped or

damaged in any way, and

F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct

change in performance – this indicates a
need for service.

19. Replacement Parts – When replacement parts

are required, be sure the service technician has
used replacement parts specified by the
manufacturer or have the same characteristics
as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions
may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.

20. Safety Check – Upon completion of any service

or repairs to the appliance, ask the service
technician to perform safety checks to determine
that the appliance is in proper operation condition.

21. Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The appliance

should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as
recommended by the manufacturer.

22. Heat – The appliance should be situated away

from heat sources such as radiators, heat
registers, stoves, or other appliances (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.

uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and
cart combination to overturn.

10. Ventilation – Slots and openings in the

cabinet are provided for ventilation and to
ensure reliable operation of the appliance and
to protect it from overheating, and these
openings must not be blocked or covered. The
openings should never be blocked by placing
the appliance on a bed, sofa, rug, or other
similar surface. The appliance should not be
placed in a builtin installation such as a
bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is
provided. There should be free space of at
least 5 cm (2 in.) and an opening behind the
appliance.

11. Power Sources – The appliance should be

operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure
of the type of power supply to your home, consult
your appliance dealer or local power company.

12. Grounding or Polarization – The appliance

may be equipped with a polarized alternating
current line plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other). This plug will fit into
the power 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.

13. Power-Cord Protection – Powersupply cords

should be routed so that they are not likely to
be walked on or pinched by items placed upon
or against them, paying particular attention
to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles,
and the point where they exit from the
appliance.

14. Lightning – For added protection for the

appliance during a lightning storm, or when it
is left unattended and unused for long periods
of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This
will prevent damage to the appliance due to
lightning and power-line surges.

15. Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets,

extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.

16. Object and Liquid Entry – Never push
