When Installing the Unit

• Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment

where it may be splashed by water or other liquids,
as doing so may result in fire or electric shock.

• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on the

unit. Using a voltage higher than that which is
specified may result in fire or electric shock.

• Do not cut, kink, otherwise damage nor modify the

power supply cord. In addition, avoid using the
power cord in close proximity to heaters, and never
place heavy objects -- including the unit itself -- on
the power cord, as doing so may result in fire or
electric shock.

• Owing to the unit's size and weight, be sure that at

least two persons are available to install the unit.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury.

• Do not use other methods than specified to mount

the bracket. Extreme force is applied to the unit
and the unit could fall off, possibly resulting in
personal injuries.

• Use a cable of AWG 16 or thicker (VP-1061 and

VP-1121) or AWG 12 or thicker (VP-1241 and VP-
1361) for connecting to the 24 V DC POWER IN
terminal. Also, be sure to firmly screw the cable to
the terminal. Failure to do so may cause the cable
to generate heat, possibly resulting in fire.

• The socket-outlet shall be installed near the

equipment and the plug (disconnecting device)
shall be easily accessible.

• The apparatus shall be connected to a main socket

outlet with a protective earthing connection.

• The terminals marked with the symbol

are

hazardous live. The external wiring to these
terminals requires installation by an instructed
person.

When the Unit is in Use

• Should the following irregularity be found during

use, immediately disconnect the power supply plug
from the AC outlet and contact your nearest TOA
dealer. Make no further attempt to operate the unit
in this condition as this may cause fire or electric
shock.
· If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming

from the unit

· If water or any metallic object gets into the unit
· If the unit falls, or the unit case breaks
· If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of

the core, disconnection, etc.)

· If it is malfunctioning (no tone sounds.)

• To prevent a fire or electric shock, never open nor

remove the unit case as there are high voltage
components inside the unit. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.

• Do not place cups, bowls, or other containers of

liquid or metallic objects on top of the unit. If they
accidentally spill into the unit, this may cause a fire
or electric shock.

• Do not insert nor drop metallic objects or

flammable materials in the ventilation slots of the
unit's cover, as this may result in fire or electric
shock.

• Do not touch a plug during thunder and lightning,

as this may result in electric shock.

• When replacing the fuse, be sure to use the

supplied one or equivalent. Doing otherwise may
cause fire or electric shock.

When Installing the Unit

• Never plug in nor remove the power supply plug

with wet hands, as doing so may cause electric
shock.

• When unplugging the power supply cord, be sure

to grasp the power supply plug; never pull on the
cord itself. Operating the unit with a damaged
power supply cord may cause a fire or electric
shock.
