    I bought a Japanese PS5, I live and Argentina

    So long story short, I bought a PS5 on a store (model CFI-1200A), which ended up being japanese, the thing is: console and manual say 100V ~ 3.55A 50/60MHz, can I safely plug it? Argentina is 220V 50Hz. If not, can I use a transformer? I was recommended a 700W in a store (i think is an overkill).
