Be sure to use only the AC adaptor
included with the unit. Also, make
sure the line voltage at the installation
matches the input voltage specified
on the AC adaptor's body. Other AC
adaptors may use a different polarity,
or be designed for a different voltage,
so their use could result in damage,
malfunction, or electric shock.

power cord, nor place heavy objects
on it. Doing so can damage the cord,
producing severed elements and
short circuits. Damaged cords are fire
and shock hazards!
