For the set with a
polarized AC power
cord plug
This plug will fit into the power outlet only
one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet,
try reversing the plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact your electrician to have a
suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug by
forcing it in.
Alternate Warning
For the set with a
three-wire grounding
type AC plug
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type
power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you
are unable to insert the plug into the outlet,
contact your electrician to have a suitable
outlet installed. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the grounding plug.
Overloading
Do not overload wall
outlets, extension cords or
convenience receptacles
beyond their capacity,
since this can result in fire
or electric shock.
Always turn the set off
when it is not to be used.
When the set is left
unattended and unused
for long periods of time,
unplug it from the wall
outlet as a precaution
against the possibility of
an internal malfunction
that could create a fire
hazard.
Object and Liquid
Entry
