FIRE AND ELECTRICAL HAZARD

  • Do not use a pressure washer to clean the cabinet. High-pressure water can breach enclosure seals, damage internal components, and obstruct the TMS ventilation system, increasing the potential for a thermal event.

  • Instead, use a soft cloth and mild, non-corrosive cleaner, carefully avoiding all vents, fan intakes, and cable ports.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury.
