safely repack the unit for shipment.

Protect Your Furniture
This model is equipped with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from moving
when you operate the controls. These ‘feet’ are made from non-migrating rubber
material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture.
However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning
sprays may cause the rubber 'feet’ to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on
the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you
purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home
improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber
‘feet’ before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.
Power Sources
This system is designed to operate on 120V AC 60Hz house current only. Connecting
this system to any other power source may cause damage to the system and such
damage is not covered by your warranty.
NOTE: This system has polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow blade.
This plug will only fit into a matching polarized AC outlet.
This is a safety feature to reduce the possibility of electric shock. If this plug will not fit
in your AC outlet, you probably have an outdated non-polarized outlet. You should
have your outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician.
Do not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to make the plug fit into your
outlet. This defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.
