Servicing of Double-Insulated Products
In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated product, nor
should a means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a double-insu-
lated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should be
done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated
product must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated product is
marked with the words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED”. The
symbol may also be marked on the product.
Polarized Plug
To reduce the risk of electric 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.
