CAUTION
•Do not install the machine in unstable locations, such as unsteady platforms or inclined floors, or in locations subject to excessive vibrations, as this may cause the machine to fall or tip over, resulting in personal injury.
•Never block the ventilation slots and louvers on the machine. These openings are provided for proper ventilation of working parts inside the machine. Blocking these openings can cause the machine to overheat. Never place the machine on a soft surface, such as a sofa or rug.
•Do not install the machine in the following locations:
-A damp or dusty location
-A location near water faucets or water
-A location exposed to direct sunlight
-A location subject to high temperatures
-A location near open flames
Power SupplyWARNING
•Do not damage or modify the power cord. Also, do not place heavy objects on the power cord, or pull on or excessively bend it, as this could cause electrical damage and result in a fire or electrical shock.
•Keep the power cord away from a heat source; failure to do this may cause the power cord coating to melt, resulting in a fire or electrical shock.
•Do not connect or disconnect the power cord with wet hands, as this may result in electrical shock.
•Do not connect the power cord to a multiplug power strip, as this may cause a fire or electrical shock.
•Do not bundle up or tie the power cord in a knot, as this may result in a fire or electrical shock.
•Insert the power plug completely into the power outlet, as failure to do so may result in a fire or electrical shock.
•Do not use power cords other than the power cord provided, as this may result in a fire or electrical shock.
•As a general rule, do not use extension cords. Using an extension cord may result in a fire or electrical shock. If an extension cord must be used, however, use one rated for voltages of 120 V AC and over, untie the cord binding, and insert the power plug completely into the extension cord outlet to ensure a firm connection between the power cord and the extension cord.
