Connecting the AC adapter

WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment:

Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at all times.

Disconnect power from the device by unplugging the power cord from the AC outlet (not by unplugging the power cord from the device).

If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on the power cord, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed) 3- pin outlet. Do not disable the power cord grounding pin, for example, by attaching a 2-pin adapter. The grounding pin is an important safety feature.

To connect the device to external AC power, follow these steps:

1.Plug the AC adapter into the power connector (1) on the device.

2.Plug the power cord into the AC adapter (2).

3.Plug the other end of the power cord into an AC outlet (3).

Using battery power

When a charged battery is in the device and the device is not plugged into external power, the device runs on battery power. When the device is plugged into external AC power, the device runs on AC power.

If the device contains a charged battery and is running on external AC power supplied through the AC adapter, the device switches to battery power if the AC adapter is disconnected from the device.
