∙ All cautions and warnings on the device or User Guide should be noted.
∙ Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
Power
∙ Make sure that the power voltage is within its safety range and has been adjusted
properly to the value of 100~240V before connecting the device to the power outlet.
∙ If the power cord comes with a 3-pin plug, do not disable the protective earth pin
from the plug. The device must be connected to an earthed mains socket-outlet.
∙ Please confirm the power distribution system in the installation site shall provide
the circuit breaker rated 120/240V, 20A (maximum).
∙ Always disconnect the power cord or switch the wall socket off if the device would
be left unused for a certain time to achieve zero energy consumption.
∙ Place the power cord in a way that people are unlikely to step on it. Do not place
anything on the power cord.
∙ If this device comes with an adapter, use only the MSI provided AC adapter approved
for use with this device.
Battery
Please take special precautions because this device comes with a battery.
∙ Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or
equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer.
∙ Avoid disposal of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or mechanically crushing or
cutting of a battery, which can result in an explosion.
∙ Avoid leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature or extremely low air
pressure environment that can result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable
liquid or gas.
∙ Do not ingest battery. If the coin/button cell battery is swallowed, it can cause
severe internal burns and can lead to death. Keep new and used batteries away
from children.
