2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Power Source
Always use the provided AC adapter.
Operate only from the power source specified
on the AC adapter.
During use of the AC adapter, the surface of it
gets hot. This is normal and not a failure.
Do not cover the case of the AC adapter with
any material, while it is in operation. Leave 15
cm space (minimum) around the AC adapter.
The rating information and safety caution of the
AC adapter are on it’s case.
Warning:
When the set is not in use for a long time,
disconnect it from the mains supply.
Power Cord
Do not place the unit, a piece of furniture, etc., on
the power cord (mains lead), or pinch the cord.
Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out
the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the
power cord when your hands are wet as this could
cause a short circuit or electric shock. Never make
a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The
power cords should be routed in such a way that
they are not likely to be stepped on. Check the
power cord once in a while. When you find it
damaged, ask closest service agent for help. When
the AC power cord needs to be changed, it should
be done at a qualified service shop only.
