When using any electric product, basic precautions should always be taken, including the following:
– To reduce the risk, close supervision is necessary when the product is used near children.
– Protect the apparatus from atmospheric agents and keep it away from water, rain and high humidity places.
– This product should be site away from heat sources such as radiators, lamps and any other device that generate heat.
– This product should be located so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation and heating dissipation.
– Care should be taken so that objects and liquids do not go inside the product.
– The product should be connected to a power supply mains line only of the type described on the operating instructions or as marked on the
product. Connect the apparatus to a power supply using only power cord included making always sure it is in good conditions.
–
WARNING: The mains plug is used as disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
– Do not cancel the safety feature assured by means of a polarized line plug (one blade wider than the other) or with a earth connection.
– Make sure that power supply mains line has a proper earth connection.
– Power supply cord should be unplugged from the outlet during strong thunderstorm or when left unused for a long period of time.
– Do not place objects on the product’s power cord or place it in a position where anyone could trip over, walk on or roll anything over it. Do not
allow the product to rest on or to be installed over power cords of any type. Improper installations of this type create the possibility of fire hazard
and/or personal injury.
– This product in combination with loudspeakers may be capable of producing
sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. Exposure to extremely
high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary
considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone
will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a period of time.
The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA)
has specified the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart.
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits could
result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure
to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed
to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels use hearing
protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear
canals or over the ears must be worn when operating the equipment in order to
prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth
here. Keep your's attention that childrens and pets are more suscetible to excessive noise levels.
