Units shipped to China are designed for operation on 220 V AC only.
To ensure safe operation, the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a
standard three-pin power point which is effectively earthed through the normal
household wiring. Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-core and
be correctly wired to provide connection to earth. Improper extension cords are a
major cause of fatalities. The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not
imply that the power point is earthed and that the installation is completely safe.
For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective earthing of the power point, con-
sult a qualified electrician.
