Précautions de sécurité

Mise à la terre et polarisation — Si ce produit peut être utilisé avec un adaptateur

secteur spécifié, l’adaptateur peut être équipé d’une fiche secteur polarisée (une fiche avec une lame plus grande que l’autre). Cette caractéristique de sécurité permet à la fiche d’être introduite dans la prise de courant que d’une seule façon. Si vous ne pouvez pas introduire la fiche dans la prise de courant, essayez de la retourner. Si la fiche ne rentre toujours pas, contacter un électricien pour changer la prise.

Protection du cordon d’alimentation — Le cordon d’alimentation doit être placé

de manière à éviter que l’on marche dessus. Ne jamais placer d’objets lourds sur le cordon d’alimentation ni l’enrouler autour d’un pied de table ou de chaise. Laisser le champ libre autour des points de raccordement du cordon d’alimentation, au niveau de la prise de courant et au raccordement du produit, de tout adaptateur secteur ou cordon d’alimentation accessoire.

Foudre — Si un orage éclate pendant l’utilisation d’un adaptateur secteur spécifié,

le débrancher immédiatement de la prise de courant. Pour éviter des dommages de surtension inattendues, toujours débrancher l’adaptateur secteur de la prise de courant et le débrancher de l’appareil photo lorsque l’appareil n’est pas en service.

Surcharge — Ne jamais surcharger les prises de courant, les cordons

prolongateurs, les prises intégrées ni d’autres points de raccordement d’alimentation avec trop de fiches.

des capots de protection ou de démonter l’appareil pourrait vous exposer à des situations dangereuses de haute tension.

Dommages nécessitant une réparation — Si vous constatez une des anomalies

décrites ci-dessous tout en utilisant un adaptateur secteur spécifié, le débrancher de la prise de courant et s’adresser à du personnel de service qualifié : a) Du liquide a été répandu sur le produit ou des objets quelconques sont

entrés dans le produit.
