These symbols are used to alert operators to a specific operating procedure that must be emphasized in order to operate the machine safely.
WARNING
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.
When you operate this product, the power outlet should be near the product and easily accessible.
Connect the AC adaptor firmly to the power cord, and plug the power cord firmly into an AC outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shock.
