Units shipped to the U.S.A and Canada are designed for operation on 120 V AC only.
Safety precaution with use of a polarized AC plug.
However, some products may be supplied with a nonpolarized plug.
CAUTION
: To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully
insert.
ATTENTION
: Pour éviter chocs électriques, introduire la lame la plus large de la fiche
dans la borne correspondante de la prise et pousser jusqu’au fond.
The available power supply voltage differs according to country or region. However,
this unit is equipped with an Automatic Voltage Selector.
The power supply voltage of the area where the unit will be used automatically
meets the required voltage within the range of AC 220 - 240 V, without any manual
voltage adjustment.
To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a
standard three-pin power point which is effectively earthed through the normal
household wiring. Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-core and
be correctly wired to provide connection to earth.
Improper extension cords are a major cause of fatalities. The fact that the equipment
operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power point is earthed and that the
installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective
earthing of the power point, consult a qualified electrician.
