Position the power cord carefully: Route the power cord so that
it will not be walked on, tripped over, or pinched by items placed
upon or against it. Pay particular attention to the plug, electrical
outlet, and the point where the power cord exits the product.

or convenience receptacle. The overall system load must not
exceed 80% of the branch circuit rating. If power strips are used,
the load should not exceed 80% of the power strip input rating.
Observe extension cord ratings: If an extension cord or power
strip is used, make sure that the cord or strip is rated for the
product and that the total ampere ratings of all products plugged
into the extension cord or power strip do not exceed 80% of the
extension cord or strip ampere ratings limit.
Do not use appliance converters: Do not attempt to power the
product with converter kits sold for appliances.
Handle battery packs carefully: Do not disassemble, crush,
