Do not take out or insert power plug with a wet hand. This could lead to an electric shock.
Make sure to use only the specified power supply (AC 100 V - 120 V or AC 220 V - 240 V). If the power supply other than the specified voltage is used, it could cause an electric shock and fire.
Take power for the plotter directly from the power socket (AC 100 V - 120 V or AC 220 V - 240 V). Do not use complex multiple plugs on the same socket. This could generate heat and might cause fire.
