These symbols are used to
alert operators to a specific
operating procedure that
must be emphasized in order
to operate the unit safely.
When you operate this product, the power
outlet should be near the product and easily
accessible.
To ensure safe operation, the power cord
supplied must be inserted into a standard
three-prong AC outlet which is effectively
grounded (earthed) through the normal
wiring.
The fact that the equipment operates
satisfactorily does not imply that the power
point is grounded (earthed) and that the
installation is completely safe. For your
safety, if in any doubt about the effective
grounding (earthing) of the power point,
consult a qualified electrician.
If the plug cannot be inserted into the AC
outlet, contact a licensed electrician to
replace the AC outlet with a properly
grounded (earthed) one.
Do not defeat the grounding (earthing) plug
(ex. do not use a conversion plug).
Connect the AC adaptor firmly to the power
cord, and plug the power cord firmly into an
AC outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or
electric shock.
Do not pull, bend, rest objects on, or chafe
the power cord, plug, and AC adaptor.
Damage to the power cord or plug can
cause fire or electric shock.
Do not attempt to repair the power cord,
plug, or AC adaptor. If the power cord or
plug is damaged or frayed, contact an
authorized service representative for a
replacement.
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.
