ensure adequate earth grounding by not using this cord can cause
product damage.
CAUTION VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS: When installing the product in a
cabinet, the convection into and out of the product must not be
restricted. The ambient temperature (outside the cabinet) must be less
than the maximum operating temperature of the product by 4°C for
every 100 watts dissipated in the cabinet. If the total power dissipated
in the cabinet is greater than 800 watts, then forced convection must be
