WARNING
Power and Ground Connection Cautions
Ensure that the plug connection is free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated connector can draw a
significant amount of current that can generate heat and eventually cause fire if left unattended over an
extended period of time.
Always use the power cord provided with your machine. When an extension power cord is required, always
use a properly rated cord.
120 V/15 A
If you use a cord with an unspecified current rating, it may be underrated, and the machine, or plug may emit
smoke, orbecome hot to the touch.
Do not attempt to repair, pull, bend, chafe or otherwise damage the power cord. Do not place a heavy object
on the cord. A damaged cord can cause fire or electric shocks.
Never touch a power cord with wet hands. Danger of electric shock exists.
If the power cord is damaged, or insulated wires are exposed, contact the authorized
TOSHIBA dealer for a replacement. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or electric
shocks.
Stop operation immediately if your machine emits smoke, excessive heat, unusual noise, or abnormal smell,
or if water is spilt onto the machine. These conditions can cause fire. Immediately unplug the machine, and
contact the authorized TOSHIBA dealer.
Do not disconnect or reconnect the machine while the power cord connect to outlet. Disconnecting a live
connector can cause arcing, consequently deforming the plug and cause fire.
When disconnecting the machine, grasp the plug instead of the cord. Pulling on a cord forcibly can damage it,
and cause fire, or an electric shock.
When the machine is not used over an extended period of time, unplug it. If an unused machine is left
connected to a power source for a long period, degraded insulation can cause electric shocks, current
leakage or fire.
Be sure to unplug the machine before accessing the interior of the machine for cleaning, maintenance or fault
clearance. Access to a live machine's interior can cause an electric shock.
