Polish Center for Testing and Certification Notice All equipment that works together (computer, monitor, printer, and so on) should have the same power supply source. The phasing conductor of the room's electrical installation should have a reserve short-circuit protection device in the form of a fuse with a nominal value no larger than 10 amperes (A). To completely switch off the equipment, the power supply cable must be removed from the power supply socket, which should be located near the equipment and easily accessible. A protection mark "B" confirms that the equipment is in compliance with the protection usage requirements of standards PN-93/T-42107 and PN-89/E-06251. 8ZNBHBOJB1PMTLJFHP$FOUSVN #BEBËJ$FSUZGJLBDKJ 8TQÍQSBDVK“DF[FTPC“VS[“E[FOJB LPNQVUFS NPOJUPS ESVLBSLB QPXJOOZCZÀ[BTJMBOF[UFHPTBNFHPySÍEB *OTUBMBDKBFMFLUSZD[OBQPNJFT[D[FOJBQPXJOOB[BXJFSBÀ - XQS[FXPE[JFGB[PXZNSF[FSXPX“PDISPOÄQS[FE[XBS DJBNJ XQPTUBDJCF[QJFD[OJLBPXBSUPvDJ[OBNJPOPXFK OJFXJÄLT[FKOJ™" BNQFSÍX 8DFMVDBLPXJUFHPXZ“D[FOJBVS[“E[FOJB[TJFDJ [BTJMBOJB OBMF™ZXZK“ÀXUZD[LÄLBCMB[BTJMBK“DFHP[ HOJB[ELB LUÍSFQPXJOOP[OBKEPXBÀTJÄXQPCMJ™V VS[“E[FOJBJCZÀBUXPEPTUÄQOF - ;OBLCF[QJFD[FËTUXB#QPUXJFSE[B[HPEOPvÀVS[“E[F OJB[XZNBHBOJBNJCF[QJFD[FËTUXBV™ZULPXBOJB - - - - - [BXBS UZNJX1/ 5 J1 1P[PTUBFJOTUSVLDKF CF[QJFD[FËTUXB • - /JFOBMF™ZV™ZXBÀXUZD[FLBEBQUFSPXZDIMVCVTV XBÀLPLBPCXPEVPDISPOOFHP[XUZD[LJ+F™FMJ LPOJFD[OFKFTUV™ZDJFQS[FEV™BD[BUPOBMF™ZV™ZÀ QS[FEV™BD[B™ZPXFHP[QSBXJEPXP QP“D[POZNQS[FXPEFNPDISPOOZN • 4ZTUFNLPNQVUFSPXZOBMF™Z[BCF[QJFD[ZÀQS[FE OBHZNJ DIXJMPXZNJX[SPTUBNJMVCTQBELBNJ OBQJÄDJB V™ZXBK“DFMJNJOBUPSBQS[FQJÄÀ VS[“E[FOJB EPQBTPXVK“DFHPMVCCF[[BLÍDFOJPXFHPySÍEB [BTJMBOJB • /BMF™ZVQFXOJÀTJÄ BCZOJDOJFMF™BPOBLBCMBDI TZTUFNVLPNQVUFSPXFHP PSB[BCZLBCMFOJFCZZ VNJFT[D[POFXNJFKTDV HE[JFNP™OBCZPCZOBOJF OBEFQUZXBÀMVCQPUZLBÀTJÄPOJF • /JFOBMF™ZSP[MFXBÀOBQPKÍXBOJJOOZDIQZOÍXOB TZTUFNLPNQVUFSPXZ • /JFOBMF™ZXQZDIBÀ™BEOZDIQS[FENJPUÍXEP PUXPSÍXTZTUFNVLPNQVUFSPXFHP HEZ™NP™FUP TQPXPEPXBÀQP™BSMVCQPSB™FOJFQS“EFN QPQS[F[ [XBSDJFFMFNFOUÍXXFXOÄUS[OZDI • 4ZTUFNLPNQVUFSPXZQPXJOJFO[OBKEPXBÀTJÄ[EBMB PEHS[FKOJLÍXJySÍEFDJFQB1POBEUP OJFOBMF™Z CMPLPXBÀPUXPSÍXXFOUZMBDZKOZDI/BMF™ZVOJLBÀ LBE[FOJBMVyOZDIQBQJFSÍXQPELPNQVUFSPSB[ VNJFT[D[BOJBLPNQVUFSBXDJBTOZNNJFKTDVCF[ NP™MJXPvDJDZSLVMBDKJQPXJFUS[BXPLÍOJFHP Regulatory Notices C-5
