For Users
WARNING
Power
The power source voltage of this unit is
listed on the nameplate.
Only plug the unit into an AC outlet with
the proper voltage.
If you use a cord with an unspecified
current rating, the unit or plug may emit
smoke or become hot to the touch.
When you operate this product, the power
outlet should be near the product and
easily accessible.
Connect the AC adaptor firmly to the
power cord, and plug the power cord
firmly into an AC outlet. Otherwise, it can
cause fire or electric shock.
Do not pull, bend, rest objects on, or chafe
the power cord, plug, and AC adaptor.
