Safety Guidelines
Use the following guidelines when unsafe conditions exist or when potentially hazardous voltages are present:
- Always use caution and common sense.
- To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not operate equipment with the cover removed.
- Repairs must be performed by qualified service personnel only.
Improper handling and/or installation practices of sensitive equipment may VOID the warranty.
Caution
When handling components, or when setting switch options, always use an antistatic wrist strap connected to a grounded equipment frame or chassis. If a wrist strap is not available, periodically touch an unpainted metal surface on the equipment. Never use a conductive tool, such as a screwdriver or a paper clip, to set switches.
ATTENTION Lors de la manipulation de composants ou lors du réglage des options de commutateur, utilisez toujours un bracelet antistatique connecté à un cadre ou un châssis d'équipement relié à la terre. Si aucun bracelet n'est disponible, touchez périodiquement une surface métallique non peinte de l'équipement. N'utilisez jamais d'outil conducteur, tel qu'un tournevis ou un trombone, pour régler les commutateurs ou interrupteurs.
