WARNING
When Installing the Unit
• Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment
where it may be splashed by water or other liquids,
as doing so may result in fire or electric shock.
• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on
the unit. Using a voltage higher than that which is
specified may result in fire or electric shock. (TS-
780 only)
• Do not cut, kink, otherwise damage nor modify
the power supply cord. In addition, avoid using the
power cord in close proximity to heaters, and never
place heavy objects -- including the unit itself -- on
the power cord, as doing so may result in fire or
electric shock. (TS-780 only)
• Avoid installing or mounting the unit in unstable
locations, such as on a rickety table or a slanted
surface. Doing so may result in the unit falling
down and causing personal injury and/or property
damage. (TS-780 only)
• Since the unit is designed for in-door use, do not
use it outdoors. When it gets wet with rain, there is
a danger of electric shock.
When the Unit is in Use
• Should the following irregularity be found during
use, immediately switch off the TS-780’s power,
disconnect the power supply plug from the TS-780’s
AC outlet and contact your nearest TOA dealer.
Make no further attempt to operate the unit in this
condition as this may cause fire or electric shock.
· If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming
from the unit.

· If the unit falls, or the unit case breaks
· If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of
the core, disconnection, etc.) (TS-780 only)
· If it is malfunctioning (no tone sounds.)
• To prevent a fire or electric shock, never open nor
remove the unit case as there are high voltage
components inside the unit. Refer all servicing to
qualified service personnel.

liquid or metallic objects on top of the unit. If they
accidentally spill into the unit, this may cause a fire
or electric shock.
