Handle the Power Cord Gently

To disconnect the plug from the AC
outlet, pull on the plug itself, not on the
cord. Pulling the cord may break the wire.

Disconnect the plug from the AC outlet
whenever the unit is to be left unused for
an extended period of time.

Do not place furniture or other heavy
objects on the cord, and avoid dropping
heavy objects on it. Also do not make a
knot in the cord; this can damage it and
cause a fire hazard.
