If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power turned off and wait until there is little
difference in temperature before using the unit.

• Cautions on using mobile phones

Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that occurs, move the mobile phone away from
this unit when it is in use.

• Moving the unit

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Next, disconnect the connection
cables to other system units before moving the unit.

• Operable time for continuous use

may result in operations failing to function correctly. To continue use for longer than 24 hours, restart the
unit every 24 hours.

• About care
• Wipe the cabinet and control panel clean with a soft cloth.
• Follow the instructions when using a chemical cleaner.
• Benzene, paint thinner or other organic solvents as well as insecticide may cause material changes and
