6) Product Safety Notice-Some electr ical and
mechanical par ts have special safety-related
characteristics which are often not evident from
visual inspection, nor can the protection they give
necessarily be obtained by replacing them with
components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
Parts that have special safety characteristics are
identified by shading, an (
schematics and parts lists. Use of a substitute
replacement that does not have the same safety
characteristics as the recommended replacement
part might created shock, fire and/or other hazards.
Product safety is under review continuously and
