voltage of the system is identical with that of your local

power supply.

• The unit is not disconnected from the AC power source

(mains) as long as it is connected to the wall outlet,

even if the unit itself has been turned off.

• Unplug the system from the wall outlet if it is not to be

used for an extended period of time.
