e AC Power Cord
The AC cord provides power to operate all the GFA-7400 and 7300’s circuits. Its plug can
be connected to a standard wall outlet provided the outlet supplies a voltage compatible with the
power requirements printed on the rear panel of the GFA-7400/7300.
The GFA-7400 and 7300’s power cord is supplied with a “polarized” AC plug as required by
UL/CSA standards and the National Electrical Code. To minimize the risk of electrical shock and
to insure minimal hum from the system, do not defeat the polarity insuring feature of the plug (one
wide blade and one narrow blade). To prevent electrical shock, do not use this polarized plug
with an extension cord or AC outlet unless the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade
exposure.
