LRegularly remove any dust, etc. from the AC adaptor/power plug by pulling it from the power outlet, then wiping with a dry cloth. Accumulated dust may cause an insulation defect from moisture, etc. resulting in a fire.

LUnplug the product from power outlets if it emits smoke, an abnormal smell, or makes an unusual noise. These conditions can cause fire or electric shock. Confirm that smoke has stopped emitting and contact an authorized service center.

LUnplug from power outlets and never touch the inside of the product if its casing has been broken open.

LNever touch the plug with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.

Installation

LTo prevent the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose the product to rain or any type of moisture.

LDo not place or use this product near automatically controlled devices such as automatic doors and fire alarms. Radio waves emitted from this product may cause such devices to malfunction resulting in an accident.
