Use only the AC adapter, power cord, and batteries that are approved for use with this PWS-770. Use of another type of battery or AC adapter may cause risk of fire or explosion.
If you use an extension cable with the AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable.
When you move the PWS-770 between environments with very different temperature and/ore humidity ranges, condensation may form on or within the
PWS-770. To avoid damaging the PWS-770, allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using the PWS-770.
When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out the connector, keep it evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable make sure both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.
