PERIODS OF TIME.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or
grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug
has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide
blade or third prong are provided for your safety. If
the provided plug does not fit your outlet, consult an
electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
Protect the power cord from being walked on or
pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles,

apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when
moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury
from tip-over.
Refer all servicing to to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or
plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects
have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has
been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate
normally, or has been dropped.
MAINS DISCONNECT: The plug shall remain readily
operable. For rack-mount or installation where
plug is not accessible, an all-pole mains switch with a
contact separation of at least 3 mm in each pole shall
be incorporated into the electrical installation of the
rack or building.
FOR UNITS EQUIPPED WITH EXTERNALLY
ACCESSIBLE FUSE RECEPTACLE: Replace fuse with
same type and rating only. 1Amp slow-blow fuse.
MULTIPLE-INPUT VOLTAGE: This equipment may
require the use of a different line cord, attachment
plug, or both, depending on the available power
source at installation. Connect this equipment only to
the power source indicated on the equipment rear
panel. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, refer
servicing to qualified service personnel or equivalent.
If connected to 240V supply, a suitable CSA/UL
certified power cord shall be used for this supply.
This Equipment is intended for rack mount use only.
