service or repair. Incorrect assembly may result in electric shock or fire.

attempting any maintenance or cleaning. Turning off controls will not reduce this risk.

If an extension cord must
be used, make sure that the pins on the plug are the same number, size and shape as those
of the original power supply plug.

WARNING!
Your power supply should be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock. The power
supply comes with a detachable power cord that has a 3-prong, grounded male plug
(NEMA5-15P). The round prong of the plug gets connected to the chassis of the unit. When the
power cord is plugged into the corresponding 3 slot female receptacle (NEMA5-15R), the chassis
of the unit is automatically connected to the earth ground through the equipment grounding
conductor that is connected to the round slot of the female NEMA5-15R receptacle.
The power cord must be plugged into a NEMA5-15R outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Never alter the power cord that has
been provided. If the plug of the cord will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. Improper connection can result in risk of electric shock.
DO NOT USE THE POWER SUPPLY FOR DIRECT CHARGING OF BATTERY OR DIRECT
CONNECTION TO A BATTERY FOR BATTERY BACK-UP. (
