WARNING
As with many other electrical devices, failure to take the following precautions can result in serious
injury or death from electric shock or fire or damage to the Xbox 360 video game and
entertainment system.
Select an appropriate power source for your Xbox 360 console:
• Use only the power supply unit and AC power cord that came with your console or that you
received from an authorized repair center. If you are not sure if you have the correct power supply
unit, compare the model number on the power supply unit with the model number specified on your
console. If you need a replacement power supply unit or AC power cord, contact Xbox Customer
Support.
• Confirm that your electrical outlet provides the type of power indicated on the power supply unit
(in terms of voltage [V] and frequency [Hz]). If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to
your home, consult a qualified electrician.
• Do not use non-standard power sources, such as generators or inverters, even if the voltage and
frequency appear acceptable. Only use AC power provided by a standard wall outlet.
• Do not overload your wall outlet, extension cord, power strip, or other electrical receptacle.
Confirm that they are rated to handle the total current (in amps [A]) drawn by the Xbox 360
console (indicated on the power supply unit) and any other devices that are on the same circuit.
• Use a properly grounded electrical outlet that accommodates the three-prong grounding plug. Do
not remove the grounding prong. If the plug does not fit into your outlet, have an electrician replace
the obsolete outlet.
