Operation Guide

Introduction

Do not plug in or unplug the power plug with wet hands.
Electric shock could occur.
Do not use the power cable with an "octopus" extension cable.
Heat is generated and could cause a fire.
Connect directly to a domestic electrical outlet.
Periodically disconnect the power plug from the electrical outlet and clean the base of the plug as well as
between the blades.
When the power plug is left connected to the electrical outlet for extended periods of time, dust can collect
between the blades and the base of the plug which could cause a short-circuit and start a fire.
When disconnecting the power plug from the electrical outlet, grip the plug itself and pull it out. Do not pull it
by the cable.
If the cable is damaged or the plug is deformed, electric shock or fire could occur.
Set up a grounded (earthed) connection to prevent short circuits.
If you use the product without the grounding wire (earth wire) installed, electric shock or fire could occur.
Ground the power cable using one of the following methods.
O With the grounding terminal on the electrical outlet
O With a copper chip and so on buried at least 25.6 inches (65 cm) below ground
O With a type D grounding terminal for grounding construction
Before installing or detaching the grounding wire, make sure the power plug is disconnected from the electrical
outlet. Check the grounding for the electrical outlet you are using. Contact your local dealer if you are unable to
ground the product.
Do not connect the grounding wire to the following locations.
O Gas pipes (a fire or explosion could occur)
O Grounding wire for telephones or lightning conductors (this is dangerous as a massive surge of electricity
could be generated if it is struck by lightning)
O Water pipes or faucets (grounding is not performed if there is any plastic in the pipes)
If you do not use the product for a long time, disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet for safety reasons.
