Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched — particularly at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

Disconnecting the power plug is the only way to completely remove power to the
product and must be readily accessible at all times.

manufacturer-provided power supplies.

Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of
time.

Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is
damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the
apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has
been dropped. For service, refer to qualified service personnel, return to the
dealer, or call the Altec Lansing service line for assistance.
