Protect the cord and power adapters from liquids. For instance, do not leave your cord or power adapter near sinks, tubs, toilets, or on floors that are cleaned with liquid cleansers. Liquids can cause a short circuit, particularly if the cord or power adapter has been stressed by misuse. Liquids can also cause gradual corrosion of the power cord terminals and/or the connector terminals on the adapter which can eventually result in overheating. Always connect power cords and signal cables in the correct order and ensure that all power cord connectors are securely and completely plugged into receptacles. Do not use any power adapter that shows corrosion at the ac input pins and/or shows signs of overheating (such as deformed plastic) at the ac input or anywhere on the power adapter. Do not use any power cords where the electrical contacts on either end show signs of corrosion or overheating or where the power cord appears to have been damaged in any way. Extension cords and related devices Ensure that extension cords, surge protectors, uninterruptible power supplies, and power strips that you use are rated to handle the electrical requirements of the product. Never overload these devices. If power strips are used, the load should not exceed the power strip input rating. Consult an electrician for more information if you have questions about power loads, power requirements, and input ratings. Plugs and outlets If a receptacle (power outlet) that you intend to use with your computer equipment appears to be damaged or corroded, do not use the outlet until it is replaced by a qualified electrician. Do not bend or modify the plug. If the plug is damaged, contact the manufacturer to obtain a replacement. Some products are equipped with a three-pronged plug. This plug fits only into a grounded electrical outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat this safety feature by trying to insert it into a non-grounded outlet. If you cannot insert the plug into the outlet, contact an electrician for an approved outlet adapter or to replace the outlet with one that enables this safety feature. Never overload an electrical outlet. The overall system load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. Consult an electrician for more information if you have questions about power loads and branch circuit ratings. viii Quick Reference

Protect
the
cord
and
power
adapters
from
liquids.
For
instance,
do
not
leave
your
cord
or
power
adapter
near
sinks,
tubs,
toilets,
or
on
floors
that
are
cleaned
with
liquid
cleansers.
Liquids
can
cause
a
short
circuit,
particularly
if
the
cord
or
power
adapter
has
been
stressed
by
misuse.
Liquids
can
also
cause
gradual
corrosion
of
the
power
cord
terminals
and/or
the
connector
terminals
on
the
adapter
which
can
eventually
result
in
overheating.
Always
connect
power
cords
and
signal
cables
in
the
correct
order
and
ensure
that
all
power
cord
connectors
are
securely
and
completely
plugged
into
receptacles.
Do
not
use
any
power
adapter
that
shows
corrosion
at
the
ac
input
pins
and/or
shows
signs
of
overheating
(such
as
deformed
plastic)
at
the
ac
input
or
anywhere
on
the
power
adapter.
Do
not
use
any
power
cords
where
the
electrical
contacts
on
either
end
show
signs
of
corrosion
or
overheating
or
where
the
power
cord
appears
to
have
been
damaged
in
any
way.
Extension
cords
and
related
devices
Ensure
that
extension
cords,
surge
protectors,
uninterruptible
power
supplies,
and
power
strips
that
you
use
are
rated
to
handle
the
electrical
requirements
of
the
product.
Never
overload
these
devices.
If
power
strips
are
used,
the
load
should
not
exceed
the
power
strip
input
rating.
Consult
an
electrician
for
more
information
if
you
have
questions
about
power
loads,
power
requirements,
and
input
ratings.
Plugs
and
outlets
If
a
receptacle
(power
outlet)
that
you
intend
to
use
with
your
computer
equipment
appears
to
be
damaged
or
corroded,
do
not
use
the
outlet
until
it
is
replaced
by
a
qualified
electrician.
Do
not
bend
or
modify
the
plug.
If
the
plug
is
damaged,
contact
the
manufacturer
to
obtain
a
replacement.
Some
products
are
equipped
with
a
three-pronged
plug.
This
plug
fits
only
into
a
grounded
electrical
outlet.
This
is
a
safety
feature.
Do
not
defeat
this
safety
feature
by
trying
to
insert
it
into
a
non-grounded
outlet.
If
you
cannot
insert
the
plug
into
the
outlet,
contact
an
electrician
for
an
approved
outlet
adapter
or
to
replace
the
outlet
with
one
that
enables
this
safety
feature.
Never
overload
an
electrical
outlet.
The
overall
system
load
should
not
exceed
80
percent
of
the
branch
circuit
rating.
Consult
an
electrician
for
more
information
if
you
have
questions
about
power
loads
and
branch
circuit
ratings.
