DOUBLE INSULATION
Double insulation is a concept in safety in electric products,
which eliminates the need for the usual three-wire grounded
power cord. All exposed metal parts are isolated from ener-
gized internal components with protecting insulation.
WARNING:
The double insulated system is intended to protect
the user from shock resulting from a break in the
product's internal wiring. Observe all normal safety
precautions to avoid electrical shock.
NOTE: Servicing of a product with double insulation requires
extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be
performed only by a qualified service technician. For service,
we suggest you return the product to your nearest authorized
service center for repair. Always use original factory replace-
ment parts when servicing.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product should be connected to the included 1.5 m
18V AC/DC adaptor. Do not operate this product on direct
current (DC) through the power cord. If the product does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.

DESIGNATION/EXPLANATION
EXTENSION CORDS
When using a product at a considerable distance from a
power source, be sure to use an extension cord that has
the capacity to handle the current the product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in
overheating and loss of power. Use the chart to determine
the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only
round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter's Laboratories
(UL) should be used.
When using this product outdoors, use an extension
cord that is designed for outside use. This type of cord is
designated with "WA" or "W" on the cord's jacket.
Before using any extension cord, inspect it for loose or
exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
