Power supply precautions

Be sure to observe the following precautions concerning the power supply.
• Use only regular household electricity for the power source. Using other power sources may result in fire,
electric shock, or damage to the machine.
• Make sure that the plugs on the power supply cord are firmly inserted into the electrical outlet and the
power supply cord receptacle on the machine. Otherwise, a fire or electrical shock may result.
• Do not insert the plug on the power supply cord into an electrical outlet that is in poor condition.
• If any of the following occur, turn off the embroidery machine and unplug the power supply cord,
otherwise a fire, an electric shock or damage to the machine may result.
• When you are away from the machine.
• After using the machine.
• If a power outage occurs while the machine is being operated.
• If the machine is not operating properly, for example, when there is a loose or cut connection.
• During electrical storms.
• Use only the power supply cord included with this machine.
• Do not plug this machine in with extension cords or multi-plug adapters with any other appliances
plugged into them, otherwise a fire or an electric shock may result.
• Do not plug in or unplug the power supply cord with wet hands, otherwise an electric shock may result.
• When unplugging the power supply cord, be sure to first turn off the machine, and then grasp the plug
when unplugging the cord. Pulling on the cord may damage it or result in a fire or an electric shock.
• Do not allow the power supply cord to be cut, damaged, modified, forcefully bent, pulled, twisted, or
bundled. In addition, do not place heavy objects on the cord or expose it to heat, otherwise damage to the
cord, fire or an electric shock may result. If the power supply cord or its plug is damaged, stop using the
machine, and then take the machine to your authorized Brother dealer for repairs before continuing use.
• If the machine is not to be used for a long period of time, unplug the power supply cord, otherwise a fire
may result.
• When leaving the machine unattended, either the main switch of the machine should be turned to OFF or
the plug must be removed from the socket-outlet.
• When servicing the machine or when removing covers, the machine must be unplugged.
• For U.S.A only
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the electrical outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper electrical outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.
