Do not connect the Craft ROBO to a

non-rated power supply.

• Use of a different supply voltage may

result in electrical shock or a fire hazard

due to current leakage.

Do not use the Craft ROBO in a

location where it will be exposed to

water, rain or snow.

• Such location may cause electrical

shock or a fire hazard due to current

leakage.

If the Craft ROBO generates smoke,
