Do not install the Fusion Flex Amplier near or above any heat sources such as radiators, heating vents, or
other apparatus that produce heat. Do not block any ventilation openings or heat sinks. Avoid installing
the unit directly above other heat-producing equipment unless sucient ventilation or forced-air cooling is
provided.
Do not install the Fusion Flex Amplier in locations without proper ventilation. The Fusion Flex Amplier
should not be operated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block vents. The unit should not be
installed in an enclosed location such as a bookcase, cabinet, or closed equipment rack unless sucient
forced-air ventilation is provided.
Always install your Fusion Flex Amplier according to the manufacturer’s instructions and only use
attachments or accessories specied by the manufacturer.
Do not install the Fusion Flex Amplier on any stand, shelf, or other piece of furniture that is unable to
support its weight. If a cart is used to move the unit, use caution to avoid injury from tip-over.
Connect the Fusion Flex Amplier only to power sources of the correct voltage (as shown in this manual
and on the Fusion Flex Amplier unit).
Protect power supply cables from being pinched, walked on, or otherwise damaged. Be especially careful
where the power cable enters the power outlet and the unit.
Only connect the Fusion Flex Amplier to an electrical outlet or extension cord of appropriate type and
rating.
DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of a grounding or polarized plug by removing ground pins or using
unsafe adapters. A polarized plug has two blades - one wider than the other. A grounding plug has a
third ground prong in addition to the two main conductors. The wide blade or third groundling prong is
provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not t your outlet, consult an electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. If you replace the power cord, only use one of similar type and equal or greater current
rating.
