IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE UNIT.

■Do not abuse the cord. Do not pull or carry by cord as a handle, do not close a door on cord or pull cord around sharp edges or corners, do not run appliance over cord. Do not rest the appliance on the cord while the appliance is on or warm to the touch. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

■Damaged power cord must only be replaced by qualified service personnel. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the unit. Any attempt to open the unit will void the warranty and could lead to serious damage to the unit and/or personal injury to the operator.

■Turn off all controls before unplugging unit from outlet.

■Do not unplug by pulling on cord. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord.

■Do not use an extension cord with this product. The use of an extension cord may result in a severe electrical shock, particularly if the extension cord does not have an electrical rating higher than that of the product, if the extension cord does not have a three prong grounding plug and connector and if the extension cord is not plugged into a properly grounded circuit box with a ground fault circuit interrupter. Safety precautions such as keeping all connections off the ground and dry will not eliminate the danger.

■Connect to a properly grounded outlet only. Refer to grounding instructions in this instruction manual.

■This appliance is intended for household use only and not for commercial or industrial use.

■Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

GROUNDING ILLUSTRATIONS & RULES

This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce risk of electric shock. This machine is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Danger

Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

THE USE OF A TEMPORARY ADAPTER IS NOT PERMITTED BY THE CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE.

This machine is for use on a nominal 120 volt AC circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in (Fig. 1A). A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in (Fig. 1B) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in (Fig. 1B) if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig. 1A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
