Power cables and plug
This Product requires a three-wire grounded power cord and plug. The plug only fits in a
grounded power outlet. Make sure the power outlet is properly grounded before inserting
the plug. Do not insert the plug into a non-grounded power outlet. Contact your electrician
for details.
The cord length must not exceed 2.5 metres. To prevent electrical hazards, do not remove
or disable the ground contact on the power cord. Replace the power cord if it gets damaged.
Contact your dealer for an exact replacement. In Europe, the plug must be rated for 250
VAC, 10 amp minimum. The plug must display an international agency approval marking.
The cord must be suitable for use in the end-user country. Consult your dealer or the local
electrical authorities if you are unsure of the type of power cord to use in your country.
