Safe Servicing Practices

Avoid personal injury and/or property damage by observing important Safe Servicing Practices. Following are some limited examples of safe practices:

1.DO NOT attempt a product repair if you have any doubts as to your ability to complete the repair in a safe and satisfactory manner.

2.Always Use The Correct Replacement Parts as indi- cated in the parts documentation. Substitutions may defeat compliance with Safety Standards Set For Home Appliances. Do not exceed maximum recommended wattage on halogen bulb replace- ments. Doing so could blow fuses and/or damage transformers.

3.Before servicing or moving an appliance:

Remove power cord from the electrical outlet, trip circuit breaker to the OFF position, or remove fuse.

Turn off water supply if necessary.

4.Never interfere with the proper operation of any safety device.

5.Use ONLY REPLACEMENT PARTS CATALOGED FOR THIS APPLIANCE. Substitutions may defeat compliance with Safety Standards Set For Home Appliances.

6.GROUNDING: The standard color coding for safety ground wires is GREEN, or GREEN with YELLOW STRIPES. Ground leads are not to be used as current carrying conductors. It is EXTREMELY important that the service technician reestablish all safety grounds prior to completion of service. Failure to do so will create a hazard.

7.Prior to returning the product to service, ensure that:

All electrical connections are correct and secure.

All electrical leads are properly dressed and secured away from sharp edges, high-temperature components, and moving parts.

All non-insulated electrical terminals, connectors, heaters, etc. are adequately spaced away from all metal parts and panels.

All safety grounds (both internal and external) are correctly and securely connected.

All panels are properly and securely reassembled
