• Do not force the unit's power-supply cord to share an outlet
with an unreasonable number of other devices. Be especially
careful when using extension cords—the total power used by all
devices you have connected to the extension cord's outlet must
never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the
extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the
cord to heat up and eventually melt through.
