Important Safety Warnings
[Power]
Operate unit only on the specified supply voltage.
Disconnect power cord by connector only. Do not pull on cable portion.
Do not place or drop heavy or sharp-edged objects on power cord. A damaged cord
can cause fire or electrical shock hazards. Regularly check power cord for
excessive wear or damage to avoid possible fire / electrical hazards.
[Grounding]
Ensure unit is properly grounded at all times to prevent electrical shock hazard.
Do not ground the unit to gas lines, units, or fixtures of an explosive or dangerous
nature.
Ensure power cord is firmly plugged into AC outlet.
[Operation]
Do not operate unit in hazardous or potentially explosive atmospheres. Doing so
could result in fire, explosion, or other dangerous results.
Do not allow liquids, metal pieces, or other foreign materials to enter the unit. Doing
so could result in fire, other hazards, or unit malfunction.
If foreign material does enter the unit, turn power off and disconnect power cord
immediately. Remove material and contact authorized service representative if
damage has occurred.
[Transportation]
Handle with care to avoid shocks in transit. Shocks may cause malfunction. When
you need to transport the unit, use the original packing materials or alternate
adequate packing.

[Circuitry Access]
Do not remove covers, panels, casing, or access circuitry with power applied to the
unit! Turn power off and disconnect power cord prior to removal. Internal servicing /
adjustment of unit should only be performed by qualified personnel.
Do not touch any parts / circuitry with a high heat factor.
Capacitors can retain enough electric charge to cause mild to serious shock, even
after power is disconnected. Capacitors associated with the power supply are
especially hazardous. Avoid contact with any capacitors.
Unit should not be operated or stored with cover, panels, and / or casing removed.
Operating unit with circuitry exposed could result in electric shock / fire hazards or
unit malfunction.
[Potential Hazards]
If abnormal smells or noises are noticed coming from the unit, turn power off
immediately and disconnect power cord to avoid potentially hazardous conditions. If
problems similar to above occur, contact authorized service representative before
attempting to again operate unit.
[Consumables]
The consumables used in unit must be replaced periodically. For further details on
which parts are consumables and when they should be replaced, refer to the
specifications at the end of the Operation Manual. Since the service life of the
consumables varies greatly depending on the environment in which they are used,
they should be replaced at an early date. For details on replacing the consumables,
contact your dealer.
[Rubber Feet]
If this product has come with rubber feet attached by screws, do not insert the
screws again without rubber feet after removing the rubber feet and screws. It may
cause damage to the internal circuits or components of the unit. To install the rubber
feet again to the unit, do not use other than the supplied rubber feet and screws.

General Considerations
Power Supply
Verify your unit has the correct voltage specifications for your power source prior to applying
power by reading the voltage range on the rear panel near the AC connector. The ADA-205A
normally operates on 100/117VAC or 220-240VAC ±10%; 50/60Hz. Do not attempt to operate
the ADA-205A using a source having different specifications.
Location
Avoid using the ADA-205A in areas having high humidity, high temperature, or excessive dust.
Adequate ventilation is also required for optimum performance. As a result of this consideration,
ensure no other equipment is located, or installed, closer than 5cm to any unit.
Desk or Tabletop Use
Unit baseplate is fitted at the factory with rubber feet to allow immediate usage as a desk or
tabletop unit.
Rack Mounting
The ADA-205A unit can be mounted to EIA standard rack units. When rack mounting a unit,
remove the rubber feet and use the accessory rack mount brackets (rack ears).
Upon Receipt
Unpacking
ADA-205A unit and their accessories are fully inspected and adjusted prior to shipment.
