Important Safety Information
Verify Line Voltage Before Use
Your HK 3375 has been designed for use with 120-
volt AC current. Connection to a line voltage other than
that for which it is intended can create a safety and fire
hazard, and may damage the unit.
If you have any questions about the voltage require-
ments for your specific model, or about the line volt-
age in your area, contact your selling dealer before
plugging the unit into a wall outlet.
Do Not Use Extension Cords
To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord
attached to your unit. We do not recommend that
extension cords be used with this product. As with all
electrical devices, do not run power cords under rugs
or carpets or place heavy objects on them. Damaged
power cords should be replaced immediately with
cords meeting factory specifications.
Handle the AC Power Cord Gently
When disconnecting the power cord from an AC out-
let, always pull the plug, never pull the cord. If you do
not intend to use the unit for any considerable length
of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.
