• Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your Kramer machines away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Caution - No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.

Warning - Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with this unit ^1 .

Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall before installing or removing device or servicing unit.
