When this product is subjected to strong external interference (mechanical shock, excessive static electricity,
abnormal supply voltage due to lightning, etc.) or if it is operated incorrectly, it may malfunction.
If such a problem occurs, do the following:
Unplug the power lead from the AC socket. Then, plug it in again and retry the operation.
