AC MAINS CHARGING
WARNING: GROUNDING AND AC POWER CORD CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS — The charger
shall be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock. The charger is supplied with an electric cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounded plug. The plug is to be plugged into a mains
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER — Do not alter the AC cord or plug provided — If it does not fit in the AC mains outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection increases the risk of an
electric shock. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the genuine REDARC part or
assembly available from the manufacturer or service agent.
To reduce risk of damage to power cords, do not operate the product with the AC Mains Cable
coiled as the cord may overheat.
When finished using AC mains, disconnect the power.
CAUTION: The connection to the mains supply shall be in accordance with the national wiring rules.
REDARC recommends the AC supply cord (supplied with the Manager) be plugged directly into a suitable
AC mains outlet without use of an extension lead. If an extension lead is required, REDARC recommends
a minimum conductor size of 1.5 mm² and the extension be the shortest possible length to avoid coiling
any excess cable.
Ensure that the supplied AC Mains Cable is not coiled
and is secured in place when using to charge.
Ensure the AC Mains Cable is not damaged or degraded.
Use only on AC inputs within specications
(see 'Main Unit Specications' (page46)).
