power supply.
DANGER
If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make
sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations
for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used
safely with the device.
CAUTION
If the wall outlet is not rated 115/120V and 20A, you must have an electrician rewire the outlet
and power source. Make sure you obtain a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency
that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the
power cord can be used safely with the device.
