23)Do not short the battery pack. A bat- tery short can cause a large current flow, over heating and burns.

24)NOTE: If the supply cord of this appli- ance is damaged, it must only be re- placed by a repair shop appointed by the manufacturer, because special purpose tools are required.

25)TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELEC- TRIC SHOCK, THIS APPLIANCE HAS A POLARIZED PLUG (ONE BLADE IS WIDER THAN THE OTHER).

This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
