AC power light (

Damaged power cables can cause fire or electric shock. Never

the power cable.
If the power cable becomes damaged or the plug overheats, discon-
tinue use. There is a risk of electric shock.
Never remove the power plug from the outlet with wet hands. Doing
so may cause an electric shock.
