For the set with a three-wire grounding type AC plug:
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to have a suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding plug.

Ventilation

The slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for necessary ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the set, and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must never be blocked or covered.

Overloading

Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or convenience receptacles beyond their capacity, since this can result in fire or electric shock.
Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials.

Object and Liquid Entry

Never push objects of any kind into the set through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the set.
Never block the slots and openings by placing the set on a bed, sofa, rug or other similar surface.
Never place the set in a confined space, such as a bookcase, or built-in cabinet, unless proper ventilation is provided. Do not place the set near or over a radiator or heat register, or where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

Service

Damage Requiring Service
Unplug the set from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed.
Antennas Outdoor antenna grounding
If an outdoor antenna or cable system is installed, follow the precautions below. An outdoor antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can come in contact with such power lines or circuits. WHEN INSTALLING AN OUTDOOR ANTENNA SYSTEM, EXTREME CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN TO KEEP FROM CONTACTING SUCH POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS AS CONTACT WITH THEM IS ALMOST INVARIABLY FATAL. Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the set. If the set has been exposed to rain or water. If the set has been subject to excessive shock by being dropped, or the cabinet has been damaged. If the set does not operate normally when following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are specified in the operating instructions. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the set to normal operation. When the set exhibits a distinct change in performance - this indicates a need for service. Servicing
Do not attempt to service the set yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Aft of the dining area is the expansive AFT DECK with Alibert resin furniture, built- in bench seat with storage, and low profile aft weatherboard with stainless steel rails. Wonderful views are enjoyed from both the aft deck and salon/dining area through sliding glass doors that hide away into pockets allowing one to open the interior to the aft deck for unobstructed vistas. Spiral stairways port and starboard of the bench seat lead to the custom water sports platform and large lazzarette. Going down the circular staircase on the starboard side, just forward of the bar, Owner and Guest staterooms are accessible. The MASTER SUITE, forward and full-width amidship offers his and hers marble ensuite baths with a large 5 by 5 Adonis tub and shower to port, plus a smaller Premier on the starboard side. The walk-around king-sized bed sits athwart ship with the headboard along the port hullside. A large dresser, built- in nightstands and 3 hanging lockers offer generous storage. A full entertainment center, mirrored forward bulkhead, and padded wall covering complement the dcor. Identical GUEST STATEROOMS, aft port and starboard, have twin lower berths, vanity, nightstand, hanging lockers and ensuite baths each withtub/shower heads and lighted vanity with sink. The heads feature rose-colored marble tiling and mirrored overheads. Forward of the entrance doors on the main deck to starboard of the POWDER ROOM, with teak and holly sole and stunning black and white marble walls. Immediately forward and up 3 steps is the RAISED PILOTHOUSE, accessible from either side with teak and holly sole and pilot bench with storage below. This yachts wheelhouse appointments are fully in keeping with her transoceanic capabilities and state-of-the-art electronics. A stairway from the pilothouse leads up to the FLYBRIDGE with a second helm station, dual helm seats, bench seating for 20 to 25 guests and a huge island wet bar with storage and refrigerator. The large boat deck is aft with port and starboard davits. Forward of the pilothouse is the full GALLEY which includes every modern convenience for elegant fine dining. Opening the large window facing the portside allows the chef a splendid, openair environment. The galley features spacious Corian countertops and Pirelli flooring. Forward of the galley is the on-deck VIP STATEROOM with birdseye maple and padded vinyl wall coverings, a queen-size berth, 3 hanging lockers, a built - in bureau with drawers, television, and ensuite head with sink, vanity and shower complemented by marble flooring and mirrored walls. The CREW QUARTERS entrance is located adjacent to the galley by a separate staircase allowing for maximum privacy. The private captains quarters are forward and to the starboard of the engine room with single berth and ensuite head with shower. Across to port is the huge crews head with sink and vanity, generous storage, and a large stall shower. Forward and up 4 steps are identical over/under berth cabins with hanging lockers and sink. A crews lounge with table and storage is in the forepeak. The FOREDECK offers a large bench seat/lounge with storage below and a 7 by 12 sunpad both offering a truly wonderful view of the surroundings.
