shock.
Always unplug the power plug from an outlet by grasping the power plug itself. Never pull
on the Power Supply Cable to disconnect the Power Supply Cable from an outlet. Pulling
on the Power Supply Cable could cause a fire or electric shock as a result of damage to
the Power Supply Cable.

This equipment shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids,
such as vases, shall be placed on the equipment. To reduce the risk of fire or electric
shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (continued)
CAUTION
Never place an AC Adaptor on a wooden surface (or any other surface that could be
marred by exposure to heat) while it is in use, since its surface temperature increases
during normal use. Always rest it on a suitable heat-insulating material.
Never cover the AC Adaptor with any object while it is in use, and never place it adjacent
to a heat source. An excessive temperature increase could detrimentally affect its
performance.
Never place a Power Supply Cable near a heat source, as damage to the cord or to its
insulation could result.
CAUTION
Never bend or twist a Power Supply Cable, and never pull on a Power Supply Cable in an
attempt to remove a plug from an outlet. Always grasp the plug directly when unplugging
a Power Supply Cable to avoid causing any damage to the cord. Never plug the AC
Adaptor into an overloaded multiple outlet, power strip or surge protector to prevent
blowing a fuse or tripping a circuit breaker.
Never place heavy objects on a Power Supply Cable, as that could result in damage to
the cord.
Always confirm that the AC Adaptor plug (and the extension cord and plug, if any)
have been fully inserted into the socket, to assure a safe and secure electrical
connection.
CAUTION
The following marking is printed on the bottom housing.
Location and Handing
Air vents are provided in the cabinet to prevent excessive temperatures inside the unit. Do not
