1. Connecting the Power (Figure 1)
• Connect the supplied AC adapter to the power cord. Insert the DC plug end into the DC12V
jack on the rear panel of the unit. Next, plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
Pass the AC adapter cord through the cord hook so that the plug won't be removed from
the jack accidentally. When you unhook the cord, don't pull the cord with force.
Be sure to use the AC adapter that came with your unit. Using other AC adapters may
cause the unit to malfunction.
Be sure to plug the unit into an AC outlet of the appropriate voltage.
