to connect your device to a properly wired outlet, may cause
sparking, property damage or damage to any TV or other
component connected to your device and pose a re hazard.

Ambient temperature
The operang temperature range of your device is 32-
104°F. If the ambient temperature around your device
falls outside this range, you must correct this in order for
your device to work correctly and safely. For example, if
the temperature is too high, make sure there is sucient
venlaon (see below) and that your device is not directly
on top of or underneath other equipment.
Venlaon
Slots and openings in the casing of your device are
provided for venlaon, to ensure reliable operaon of
your device and to protect it from overheang.
• Never block the venlaon openings by placing your
device on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface.
Place it on a hard, at surface.
• Never cover the venlaon openings with items such as
newspapers, table-cloths, or curtains.
• You can place your device near other consumer electronics
devices, such as stereo ampliers or televisions, but you
must not place it directly on top or underneath them.
• Do not place your device in a built-in installaon such
as a bookcase or rack unless proper venlaon is
provided and you have adhered to the manufacturer’s
instrucons.
• Maintain a minimum distance of three inches around
your device for sucient venlaon.

Placement and mounng
Do not place your device on an unstable or uneven
surface. Your device may fall, causing serious injury to a
child or adult and serious damage to your device. If you
mount your device, for example to a wall or ceiling, follow
the manufacturer’s instrucons and use a mounng
accessory recommended by the manufacturer. See also

Risk of re or scorching
Never place naked ame sources, such as lighted candles,
on or adjacent to your device.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure that the
service technician has used replacement parts specied
by the manufacturer or that have the same characteriscs
as the original part. Unauthorized substuons may result
in re, electric shock or other hazards. See also item 14 in
