WARNING:
Do not mount the ERU on any type of aluminum or vinyl siding
or on any type of composite paneling, such as fiber board, particle board, or
strand board. If the surface is made of wood, make sure it is structurally sound.
WARNING:
Do not touch (or allow the ERU or any cabling or ladder to
touch) power lines, electric lights, and power circuits, as contact with them may be
fatal. Locate the ERU more than 6 m (20 feet) from overhead power lines. If any
part of the ERU comes into contact with a power line, call your local power
company. Do not try to remove it yourself.
