Make sure that the plug is fully 

inserted to the power outlet. Do not 

use an outlet that is loose.

Do not allow the P-touch labeler/

AC adapter/power plug/batteries to 

get wet, for example, by handling 

them with wet hands or spilling 

beverages on to them.

Since loss of eyesight may result 

when leaked fluid from batteries 

gets into your eyes, immediately 

rinse your eyes with a large amount 

of clean water, and then seek 

medical attention.

or expose to heat.

Disconnect the AC adapter and 

remove batteries immediately and 

stop using the P-touch labeler if 

you notice abnormal odor, heat, 

discoloration, deformation or 

anything unusual while using or 

storing it.
