IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Improper use of the grounded plug can increase the risk of electrical
shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified
electrician or authorized service provider.
WARNING
• This appliance must be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord provided
with this unit is equipped with a NEMA 5-15 plug that mates with standard NEMA
5-15 wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
• Never cut or remove the third-ground prong from the supplied power cord.
• Have a qualified electrician check the wall outlet and electrical circuit to ensure
the appliance is properly grounded. When a standard two-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a
properly grounded NEMA 5-15 wall outlet.
• To prevent injury, the electrical cord should be secured behind the appliance and not
left exposed or dangling.
• The appliance should always be plugged into its own dedicated NEMA 5-15 electrical
outlet. This provides the best performance while preventing overloading wiring circuits
that could cause a fire hazard from overheating.
• Have an electrician or qualified professional immediately repair or replace all power
cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Never use a cord that shows
cracks or abrasion damage. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage
the power cord.
• Never use your appliance with an extension cord unless this cord has been checked
and tested by a qualified technician or service person. The extension cord must be
a UL/CUL Listed, 3-wire grounding extension cord that has a grounding plug and
outlet and an electrical rating of 120 volts and at least 10 amps.
WARNING: We do not recommend using an extension cord. If one is
used on this appliance, it may void warranty.
