l Unplug this apparatus during lightning
storms or when unused for long periods
of time.
m Refer all servicing to qualied 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.
n Battery usage CAUTION – To prevent
battery leakage which may result in bodily
injury, property damage, or damage to
the unit:
5EN
• Install all batteries correctly, + and - as
marked on the unit.
• Do not mix batteries (old and new or
carbon and alkaline, etc.).
• Remove batteries when the unit is not
used for a long time.
• Batteries (battery pack or batteries
installed) shall not be exposed to
excessive heat such as sunshine, re or
the like.
o Apparatus shall not be exposed to
dripping or splashing.
p Do not place any sources of danger on
the apparatus (e.g. liquid lled objects,
lighted candles).
q Where the MAINS plug or an appliance
coupler is used as the disconnect device,
the disconnect device shall remain readily
operable.
Warning
•Never remove the casing of this apparatus.
•Never lubricate any part of this apparatus.
•Never place this apparatus on other electrical
equipment.
•Keep this apparatus away from direct sunlight, naked
ames or heat.
•Never look into the laser beam inside this apparatus.
•Ensure that you always have easy access to the power
cord, plug or adaptor to disconnect this apparatus from
the power.
Note
•The type plate is located at the rear of the apparatus.
Hearing safety
Listen at a moderate volume.
• Using headphones at a high volume can
impair your hearing. This product can
produce sounds in decibel ranges that may
cause hearing loss for a normal person,
even for exposure less than a minute. The
higher decibel ranges are offered for those
that may have already experienced some
hearing loss.
• Sound can be deceiving. Over time your
hearing 'comfort level' adapts to higher
volumes of sound. So after prolonged
listening, what sounds 'normal' can actually
be loud and harmful to your hearing. To
guard against this, set your volume to a safe
level before your hearing adapts and leave
it there.
To establish a safe volume level:
• Set your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can
hear it comfortably and clearly, without
distortion.
Listen for reasonable periods of time:
• Prolonged exposure to sound, even
at normally 'safe' levels, can also cause
hearing loss.
• Be sure to use your equipment reasonably
and take appropriate breaks.
Be sure to observe the following guidelines
when using your headphones.
• Listen at reasonable volumes for
reasonable periods of time.
• Be careful not to adjust the volume as your
hearing adapts.
• Do not turn up the volume so high that
you can't hear what's around you.
• You should use caution or temporarily
discontinue use in potentially hazardous
situations. Do not use headphones while
operating a motorized vehicle, cycling,
skateboarding, etc.; it may create a trafc
hazard and is illegal in many areas.
