All CA4.4pi models are designed for use with either 110 VAC 50-60
Hz. or 240 VAC 50-60 Hz. A voltage selection switch is located on
the rear of the CA4.4pi above the power receptacle. The voltage selec-
tion switch will come set to the 110 VAC position. If you are in an
area which has a 220 VAC or 240 VAC supply, move the voltage
selection switch to the 240 VAC position.
2. Do Not Touch The CA4.4pi With Wet Hands. Do not handle the
CA4.4pi or power cord when your hands are wet or damp. If water or
any other liquid enters the CA4.4pi cabinet, take the CA4.4pi to quali-
fied service personal for inspection.
3. Location of the CA4.4pi - Do not expose the CA4.4pi to direct sun
light or heating units as the CA4.4pi internal components temperature
may rise and shorten the life of the components. Avoid damp and
dusty places.
4. Care - From time to time you should wipe off the front and side pan-
els and the cabinet with a soft cloth. Do not use rough material,
thinners, alcohol or other chemical solvents or cloths since this may
damage the finish or remove the panel lettering.
