IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Power source—Connect the unit to a power source of the type described in these
instructions or as marked on the unit.
2. Polarization—The unit is equipped with a polarized power plug where one blade is wider
than the other. This safety feature ensures that the plug fits into your household AC outlet
only one way. If the plug doesn’t fit one way, try reversing it. If the plug still doesn’t fit,
contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety
purpose of the plug.
3. Power cord protection—Route 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 disconnecting it.
4. Overloading—When connecting the AC power supply cord, be careful not to overload the
household AC outlet, extension cord, or outlet from any other device as this can result in
fire or electric shock.
5. Nonuse periods—Turn the unit off when it is not in use. Unplug the unit from the
household AC outlet if it is not to be used for a long time. Unplug the unit during lightning
storms. Leaving the unit connected to a household AC outlet for extended periods can
cause battery fluid leakage.
