Handling power cords and power plugs
•
Do not use any power sources other than those that match the speci-
fi cations shown in this manual. Doing so could result in fi re or electric
shock.

•
It is dangerous to handle the power cord plug with wet hands. Doing so
could result in electric shock.
•
Touching the prongs of the power cable's plug with anything metallic con-
stitutes a fi re and electric shock hazard.
