CAUTION
The POWER switch on this unit will not completely shut off all power
from the AC outlet. Since the power cord serves as the main disconnect
device for the unit, you will need to unplug it from the AC outlet to shut
down all power. Therefore, make sure the unit has been installed so
that the power cord can be easily unplugged from the AC outlet in case
of an accident. To avoid fire hazard, the power cord should also be
unplugged from the AC outlet when left unused for a long period of
time (for example, when on vacation).
