Warning
Power supply and voltage
•Use only a power source whose output matches the rating marked on the plate on the bottom of the label printer. Also, avoid plugging too many appliances into the same extension cord. The wrong voltage or overloading of an AC outlet creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
Serious malfunction
•Continued use of the unit when smoke or a strange odor is coming from it creates the danger of electrical shock. Immediately turn power off and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Request servicing from your original dealer.
AC adaptor
•Do not allow the power cord to become damaged or broken, and never modify, over bend, twist, or pull it. Never place heavy objects on the power cord, and never expose it to direct heat. A damaged power cord creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
•Use only the AC adaptor specified for this unit. Use of another AC adaptor creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
•Should the power cord become seriously damaged (internal wiring is exposed or cut), request servicing from your original dealer. Use of a seriously damaged power cord creates the danger of fire and electrical shock.
•Never touch the AC adaptor when your hands are wet. Doing so creates the danger of electrical shock.
Never try to take the unit apart
•Never try to take the unit apart or modify it in any way. Doing so creates the danger of electrical shock, burn injury, or other personal injury.
Packaging
