1.GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
Do not use a power supply with a voltage other than that specified.
Avoid multiple connections in the same outlet. This could cause a fire or give you an electric shock. If
you are considering increasing the number of outlets, contact an electrician.
Always connect this Multifunctional Digital Systems to an outlet with a ground connection to avoid the
danger of fire or electric shock in case of short-circuiting. Contact your service representative for the
details. Be sure to use a 3-conductor, grounded wall outlet.
In areas, except the U.S. and Canada, where a 2-pin plug is used, the Multifunctional Digital Systems
must be grounded for safety. Never ground it to a gas pipe, a water pipe, or any other object not suitable
for grounding.
Plug the power cord securely into the outlet. If it is not plugged in properly, it could heat up and cause a
fire or give you an electric shock.
Do not damage, break or attempt to repair the power cord.
The following things should not be done to the power cord.
- Twisting it
- Bending it
- Pulling it
- Placing anything on it
- Heating
- Situating it near radiators or other heat sources
This could cause a fire or give you an electric shock. If the power cord is damaged, contact your service
representative.
Do not install the equipment by yourself or try to move it once it has been installed. This could result in
an injury or damage to the device. Contact your service representative if the equipment needs to be
installed or moved.
The socket outlet shall be near the equipment and be easily accessible.
Pull out the plug from the outlet more than once a year to clean around the prongs. Accumulating dust
and dirt could cause a fire due to the heat released by electric leakage.
