Emerson Radio SB266 - Manual (Page 6)

NOTE:
This unit has a polarized AC plug with one
wide blade and one narrow blade. This plug
will only fit into a matching polarized AC
outlet. This is a safety feature to reduce
the possibility of electric shock. If this plug
will not fit in your AC outlet, you probably
have an outdated non-polarized outlet. You
should have your outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do
not file the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to make the plug fit into your
outlet. This defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.

on the back of the cabinet by pressing
