When unplugging the cord from the outlet, hold the plug itself to avoid damaging
the plug or power cord. Pulling the cord may cause the cable plug to break. Replace
power cord immediately if damaged.
It is recommended to check your product annually. Please contact the manufacturer
for a complete check and periodic calibration.

CONNECTOR LONGEVITY ///////
The cable connector can be removed but we advise not to remove it (excepted for
replacement purposes) as the DSONE and its case are designed to have the clamps
permanently attached.
For optimal durability put the DSONE back in its case after use with the cable
attached to it as shown.
To ensure maximal longevity of your DSONE be careful
not to twist the cable connector as it is not designed for this purpose.
