Power and Ground Connection
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.
The fact that the equipment operates
satisfactorily does not imply that the power
point is grounded (earthed) and that the
installation is completely safe. For your
safety, if in any doubt about the effective
grounding (earthing) of the power point,
consult a qualified electrician.
If the plug cannot be inserted into the AC
outlet, contact a licensed electrician to
replace the AC outlet with a properly
grounded (earthed) one.
Do not defeat the purpose of the grounding
(earthing) plug (ex. do not use a conversion
plug).
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, and plug.
Damage to the power cord or plug can
cause fire or electric shock.
Do not attempt to repair the power cord, or
plug. If the power cord or plug is damaged
or frayed, contact an authorized service
representative for a replacement.
Ensure that the plug connection is free of
dust. In a damp environment, a
contaminated connector can draw a
significant amount of current that can
generate heat, and eventually cause fire if
left unattended over an extended period of
time.
Never touch the plug with wet hands.
Danger of electric shock exists.
When you operate this product, the power
outlet should be near the product and easily
accessible.
To ensure safe operation the power cord
supplied must be inserted into a standard
three-prong AC outlet which is effectively
grounded (earthed) through the normal
wiring.
Stop operation immediately if the unit emits
smoke, excessive heat, abnormal smell, or
unusual noise. These conditions can cause
fire or electric shock. Immediately turn the
unit off, and unplug the power cord, and
contact your dealer for service.
When disconnecting the unit, grasp the plug
instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord forcibly
can damage it, and cause fire or electric
shock.
