To reduce the risk of electric shock, the manufacturer
recommends the use of a residual current device with a
rated residual current of 30mA or less at all times.
•
Cord set replacement
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified
persons in order to avoid a hazard.
•
Extension cords:
WARNING: An extension cord should not be used
unless absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension
cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If an
extension cord is used, make sure that the pins of the
extension cord are the same number, size and shape as
those in the charger. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
