WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, this furnace must:
1. Use a properly grounded electrical outlet of correct voltage and current handling capacity.
2. Disconnect from the power supply prior to maintenance and servicing.
3. Have the door switch operating properly.
To avoid burns, this furnace must:
1. Not be touched on the exterior or interior surfaces during use or for a period of time after use.
To avoid personal injury:
1. Do not use in the presence of flammable or combustible materials; fire or explosion may result.
This device contains components which may ignite such material.
2. Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
3. This furnace contains refractory ceramic insulation which can produce respirable fibers and dust
when handled. These fibers can cause irritation and can aggravate pre-existing respiratory
disease. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has classified refractory
ceramic fiber as possibly carcinogenic. After service refractory ceramic fiber dust may contain
crystalline silica, which may cause lung damage (silicosis) and which has been classed by IARC as
a probable carcinogen.
