Care of the cabinet
Stains on the System should be wiped off with a soft cloth. If the System
is heavily stained, wipe it with a cloth soaked in water diluted neutral
detergent and wrung well, then wipe clean with a dry cloth.
Since the System may deteriorate in quality, become damaged or get its
paint peeled off, be careful about the following:
DO NOT wipe it forcefully.
DO NOT wipe it with thinners, benzines or other organic solvents including
disinfectants.
DO NOT apply any volatile substances such as insecticides to it.
DO NOT allow any rubber or plastic to remain in contact with it for a long
time.
Do not place anything on top of the System. Doing so may cause the System
to fall, causing malfunctioning and/or injury.
The manufacturer accepts absolutely no liability for any accidents or damage
resulting from inadequate assembly or mounting, insufficient strength of
attachment, misuse or abuse, or natural disasters.
If water gets inside the System
Turn the System off and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet,
then call the store where you purchased this System. Using the System in this
condition may cause a fire or electrical shock.
