Avoid places subject to dust, shocks, or vibrations.

Place the product close enough to the computer for the interface cable to reach it easily. Do not place or store the product or the power cord outdoors, near excessive dirt or dust, water, heat sources, or in locations subject to shocks, vibrations, high temperature or humidity, direct sunlight, strong light sources, or rapid changes in temperature or humidity.

Do not use with wet hands.

Place the product near an electrical outlet where the adapter can be easily unplugged.

The power cord should be placed to avoid abrasions, cuts, fraying, crimping, and kinking. Do not place objects on top of the cord and do not allow the power cord to be stepped on or run over. Be particularly careful to keep the cord straight at the end.

Use only the power cord that comes with your product. Using any other adapter could cause fire, electrical shock, or injury.

The power cord is designed for use with the product with which it was included. Do not attempt to use it with other electronic devices unless specified.

Use only the type of power source indicated on the product’s label, and always supply power directly from a standard domestic electrical outlet.

When connecting this product to a computer or other device with a cable, ensure the correct orientation of the connectors. Each connector has only one correct orientation. Inserting a connector in the wrong orientation may

damage both devices connected by the cable.

Avoid using outlets on the same circuit as photocopiers or air control systems that regularly switch on and off.

If you use an extension cord with the product, make sure the total ampere rating of the devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the cord’s ampere rating. Also, make sure the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the wall outlet does not exceed the wall outlet’s ampere rating.

Never disassemble, modify, or attempt to repair the product, or product option by yourself except as specifically explained in the product’s guides.

Do not insert objects into any opening as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts. Beware of electrical shock hazards.

If damage occurs to the plug, replace the cord set or consult a qualified electrician. If there are fuses in the plug, make sure you replace them with fuses of the correct size and rating.

Unplug the product and the power cord, and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the product; the product or the power cord has been dropped or the case has been damaged; the product or the power cord does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct change in performance. (Do not adjust controls that are not covered by the operating instructions.)

Unplug the product and the power cord before cleaning. Clean with a damp cloth only. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

If you are not going to use the product for a long period, be sure to unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.

After replacing consumable parts, dispose of them correctly following the rules of your local authority. Do not disassemble them.

Because the product is heavy, one person should never attempt to lift or carry it alone. Two people should lift and carry the product.
