Power Supply
• This unit shall be installed near the socket-outlet where the plug on the power supply cord is easily
accessible.
• Make sure the power supply used is always within the following range.
Power supply : 220-240 V AC, 50 Hz (EU)
120 V AC, 60 Hz (North America)
• When you power other appliances from the same AC outlet, make sure that the combined power
consumption does not exceed the power supply capacity.
Rated current (Rated power) : 0.5 A (EU), 0.85 A (North America)
Use only the power supply voltage specied on the main nameplate.
Using other voltages could result in a re or an electrical shock.
Make sure that the combined power consumption of the appliances to be
connected does not exceed the capacity rating of the power outlets or plug
receptacles.
Exceeding the capacity rating could cause the power outlets, plug receptacles, or power extension cords to
overheat and catch a re.

Safety Precautions
Operating Environment
Operate this unit in the following environment.
• where the temperature range is between 5 and 35°C/41 and 95°F (-10 to +50°C/14 to 122°F in storage)
• where the humidity range is between 20 and 80% RH (10 to 90% RH in storage, however no condensation)
• which is not subject to direct sunlight
• which is reasonably free from dust
• which is subject to little or no vibration
• which is free from air-borne salt
• where there are no harmful chemicals
• where the unit is not exposed to water
Keep this unit and the power cord away from heaters and heater vents.
Excessive heat could melt the cover or power cord covering, and result in a re or an electrical shock.
Do not place metal objects or vessels containing liquids on top of the unit.
The entry of any metal object or liquid could result in a re or an electrical shock.
Do not insert any metal or easily-combustible object inside this unit.
This could result in a re or an electrical shock.
Do not use ammable sprays inside or near the unit (e.g. when cleaning the
unit).
Such ammable gas may ignite and cause a re or combustion.
Do not install this unit in a location where there is excessive humidity or
where contact with water is possible.
Poor choice of location could result in deterioration of the insulation, a re or an electrical shock.
Install this unit on a level, stable stand or oor, with sucient space around it.
Failure to do so could result in the unit overturning and causing injury.
Disconnect the power plug from the power outlet before attempting to move
this unit.
Failure to do so could result in power cord damage, a re or an electrical shock.
Always disconnect the power plug from the power outlet when the unit is not
to be used for an extended period.
Failure to do so could result in a re due to leakage current if the insulation should deteriorate.

iii
Safety Precautions
Maintenance / Other
Do not damage the power cord or power plug.
Do not scratch, alter, bend, twist, pull or place heavy objects on the power cord or power plug.
This could result in damage, a re or an electrical shock.
Do not touch the power switch with wet hands.
Otherwise electric hazards may occur.
Do not remove the cover or back panel.
This unit contains high-voltage components that could cause an electrical shock.
Do not disassemble, modify or repair this unit.
There is a danger of re, electrical shock or injury.
Contact your dealer when repairs are necessary.
If any foreign object such as metal or liquid should enter this unit,
immediately turn the unit o at the power switch and disconnect the power
plug from the power outlet.
Failure to do so could result in a re or an electrical shock.
Contact your dealer immediately.
Before cleaning this unit, turn the unit o at the power switch and disconnect
the power plug from the power outlet.
Accidental operation of the unit during cleaning could result in injury.
Remove any dust that accumulates on the power plug prongs and the surface
of the plug from which the prongs extend.
Accumulated dust could result in a re.
Always grip the plug when disconnecting the power plug from the power
outlet.
Forcibly pulling on the power cord could cause damage, resulting in a re or an electrical shock.
