What to Do upon Opening the Carton

Use only with a power supply of the
same rating as indicated on the unit.

Use with any other power supply may lead
to fire or electrocution.

Ground the unit with the ground
wire.

Failure to do so may result in risk of
electrical shock in the even of a mechanical
problem

Before connecting the cable, make sure the computer's power and the CJ-500/400s main power switch are
switched off.

Securely connect the power cord, computer I/O cable and so on so that they will not be unplugged and cause
failure during operation. Doing so may lead to faulty operation or breakdown.

Arrange the power cord and interface connection cable to prevent tripping when moving around the unit.
