Safety Precautions When Working with Electricity
Please review the following additional safety guidelines before beginning
the installation procedure.
 Disconnect all power by turning off the circuit breakers before
installing or removing the device or when working with the power
supplies.
 Do not work alone if potential hazards exist.
 Never assume that the power is disconnected from a circuit;
always check the circuit.
 Inspect the work area carefully for possible hazards, such as moist
floors, ungrounded power extension cables, frayed power cord, or
missing safety grounds.
If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:
 Use caution; do not become a victim yourself.
 Turn off power to the system.
 If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise,
access the condition of the victim and then call for help.
 Determine if the person needs rescue breathing or external cardiac
compressions and take appropriate action.
