cord shall comply with National safety regulations of the country where the
equipment is to be used.
• Do not use the AC adaptor with a damaged cord or plug. Replace
it immediately.
• Do not operate the AC adaptor if it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped, or otherwise damaged in any way; it should be inspected by
qualified service personnel.

service personnel. Incorrect reassembly may result in electric shock or fire.
