TWO VOLTAGE SELECTOR
SWITCHES
Only multi-voltage model is provided with
these switches. Mains voltages in Saudi
Arabia are 127 V and 220 V only. Never use
this model with the 110 V setting in Saudi
Arabia.
The line voltage selector switches are on the
rear panel. Check that they are set properly
before plugging the power cord into the
household wall 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 the screwdriver in the groove
of the voltage selector at the right, and
adjust so that the tip of the groove points
to the voltage value of your area.
3. Next, insert the screwdriver in the groove
of the voltage selector at the left and adjust
until the voltage is the same as at the right.
