RECOGNIZE THIS SYMBOL AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION.

ATTENTION INSTALLING PERSONNEL

As a professional installer you have an obligation to

know the product better than the customer. This

includes all safety precautions and related items.

Prior to actual installation, thoroughly familiarize

yourself with this Instruction Manual. Pay special

attention to all safety warnings. Often during

installation or repair it is possible to place yourself

in a position which is more hazardous than when

the unit is in operation.

Remember, it is your responsibility to install the

product safely and to know it well enough to be able

to instruct a customer in its safe use.

Safety is a matter of common sense...a matter of

thinking before acting. Most dealers have a list of

specific good safety practices...follow them.

The precautions listed in this Installation Manual

are intended as supplemental to existing practices.

However, if there is a direct conflict between existing

practices and the content of this manual, the

precautions listed here take precedence.
