2. Plugging In For Power

AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY: 120V~60Hz

For Your Safety

The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is wider than the other)

and only fits into AC power outlets one way.

If the plug will not go into the outlet completely, turn the plug over

and try to insert it the other way. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.

Note:

Power is fed to the unit even when it is not functioning. To cut the power supply off, the power cable must be unplugged.

3. Daylight Saving Time	EN

button at the side of the unit to turn on/
off daylight saving time in areas
observing/ not observing such time
change. The daylight saving time icon
will be displayed when the feature is
activated.
