LINE VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH
Only multi-voltage models are provided with this switch.
U.S.A., Canadian, European, U.K., and Australian models are
not provided with this switch.
You will find the line voltage selector switch on the rear panel. This
switch has positions for 110 V, 120 V, 220 V and 240 V power sources.
Before your model is shipped from the factory, the switch is set to the
power requirements of the destination; nevertheless, you should
check that it is set properly before plugging the power cord into the
AC outlet. If the voltage is not properly set or if you move to an area
where the voltage requirements differ, adjust the selector switch as
follows. Before adjusting disconnect the power cord.
1. Provide yourself with a medium size flat tip screwdriver.
2. Insert the screwdriver into the arrow on the voltage selector and
adjust so that the tip of the arrow points to the voltage value of
your area.
