Powering Your Switch
Connect the supplied AC adapter to 12VDC/100mA
on the back of the switch. Then, plug the other end of the
adapter into a standard AC outlet. The power turns on.

Note: To avoid injury, do not connect the adapter to a
ceiling outlet.


My gosh! A new thing to worry about.



News report... MM was found hanging by a cord that was foolishly
plugged into a ceiling outlet. Details at 11.

I'm surprised they didn't say:

"Note: To avoid injury, do not connect the adapter to any outlet."

which would have been more accurate.

Or even:

"Note: To avoid injury, do not open the package containing this
adapter."
