The product may fall, causing serious damage to the product.

Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are

provided for ventilation; to ensure reliable operation of the

built in installation unless proper ventilation is provided.

This product should be operated from the type of power source

This product is equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a

plug having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a

grounding type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are

unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician

to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the purpose of the
