The AC Power Cord supplied with this projector meets the requirement for use in the country you
purchased it.

AC Power Cord for the United States and Canada:

AC Power Cord used in the United States and Canada is listed by the
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and certified by the Canadian Standard
Association (CSA).AC Power Cord has a grounding-type AC line plug. This is
a safety feature to be sure that the plug will fit into the power outlet. Do not try
to defeat this safety feature. Should you be unable to insert the plug into the
outlet, contact your electrician.

AC Power Cord for the United Kingdom:

This cord is already fitted with a moulded plug
incorporating a fuse, the value of which is
indicated on the pin face of the plug. Should the
fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA approved BS
1362 fuse must be used of the same rating,
marked thus . If the fuse cover is detachable,
never use the plug with the cover omitted. If a
replacement fuse cover is required, ensure it is of
the same colour as that visible on the pin face of
the plug (i.e. red or orange). Fuse covers are
available from the Parts Department indicated in
your User Instructions.

If the plug supplied is not suitable for your socket
outlet, it should be cut off and destroyed.
The end of the flexible cord should be suitably
prepared and the correct plug fitted.

WARNING : A PLUG WITH BARED FLEXIBLE
CORD IS HAZARDOUS IF ENGAGED IN A
LIVE SOCKET OUTLET.

THE SOCKET-OUTLET SHOULD BE INSTALLED NEAR THE EQUIPMENT AND EASILY
ACCESSIBLE.
