The line voltage selector switches are on the rear panel. Before
your model is shipped from the factory, these switches are set to
the power requirements of the destination. Check they are to
properly before plugging the power cord into the household wail
socket. If the voltage is not properly set or if you move to an area
where the voltage requirements differ, adjust the selector
switches as follows.
1. Use a medium-size screwdriver.
2. First, insert a screwdriver into the groove of the voltage
selector at the top, and adjust so that tip of the groove points
to the voltage value of your area.
3. Next, insert the screwdriver into the groove of the voltage
selector at the bottom and adjust until the voltage is the same
as at the top.
Both switches must
be in the same switch
setting.
