•Working environmental temperature is 15 to 30°C (59 to 86°F). Avoid using at lower or
higher than this.
Notes on cleaning
•Never disassemble the device. Disassembling the device can result in
electric shock hazards and breakage of the device.
•Prevent moisture from entering inside the device. If the inner part of the
device becomes wet, electric shock hazards and breakage of the device
