Safety
1. Power sourceConnect the unit to a power source of the type
described in these instructions or as marked on the unit.
2. PolarizationThe unit is equipped with a polarized power plug
where one blade is wider than the other. This safety feature en-
sures that the plug fits into your household AC outlet only one
way. If the plug doesnt fit one way, try reversing it. If the plug still
doesnt fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do
not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the plug.
3. Power cord protectionRoute the AC power supply cord so
that it will not be walked on or pinched by items placed on or
against it. Never take hold of the plug or cord with wet hands.
Always grasp the plug body firmly when connecting and discon-
necting it.

careful not to overload the household AC outlet, extension cord,
or outlet from any other device as this can result in fire or electric
