| Safety | |
|
| 1. | Power Source— The unit should be connected to a power | ||
|
| ||||
started |
|
| supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or | ||
|
| as marked on the unit. If you are not sure of the type of power | |||
|
|
|
| ||
|
|
|
| supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local | |
Getting |
|
| power company. | ||
2. | Polarization— If the unit is equipped with a polarized AC power | ||||
|
| ||||
|
|
|
| plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), that plug will | |
|
|
|
| fit into the AC outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you | |
|
|
|
| are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the | |
|
|
|
| plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to | |
|
|
|
| replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of | |
|
|
|
| the polarized plug. | |
|
| 3. | Power Cord Protection— AC power supply cords should be | ||
|
|
|
| routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by | |
|
|
|
| items placed upon or against them. Never take hold of the plug or | |
|
|
|
| cord if your hand is wet, and always grasp the plug body when | |
|
|
|
| connecting or disconnecting it. | |
|
| 4. | Overloading— Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords | ||
|
|
|
| as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock. | |
|
| 5. | Nonuse Periods— When the unit is not being used, turn the pow- | ||
|
|
|
| er off. When left unused for a long time, the unit should be un- | |
|
|
|
| plugged from the household AC outlet. | |
|
| 6. | Attachments— Do not use attachments not recommended by | ||
|
|
|
| the unit manufacturer as they may cause hazards. | |
