product. Use extra care to follow the warnings written on the product itself and in the operating instructions.
Keep the operating instructions and safety suggestions for reference in the future.
1. Power Source. The product should only be connected to a power supply which is described either in the operating instructions or

plug can only be used in a grounding power outlet. If the plug does not insert into the outlet you are using, the outlet probably is
not a grounding type of power outlet. Contact your electrician to replace the obsolete outlet with a grounding type of outlet instead
of defeating the safety feature of the grounding type of plug.
4. Periods of Non-use. If the product is not used for any significant period of time, the product's AC power supply cord should be
