WARNING
This unit should be destined only to the use for which it has been expressly
conceived. Any other use should be considered improper and therefore
dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for eventual damage
caused by improper, incorrect, and unreasonable use.
To reduce the risk of death, electric shock, serious injury, or fire, follow
basic precautions including the following:
• This unit requires an independent power supply. See the nameplate for proper
voltage and breaker/fuse size. Failure to use a proper breaker or fuse can
result in a tripped breaker, blown fuse, or damage to existing wiring. This
could lead to heat generation or fire.
•
THIS UNIT MUST BE GROUNDED.
This unit is equipped with a 3-prong
grounding plug to reduce the risk of potential shock hazards. It must be
plugged into a properly grounded, independent 3-prong wall outlet. If the
outlet is a 2-prong outlet, it is your personal responsibility to have a qualified
electrician replace it with a properly grounded, independent 3-prong wall
outlet. Do not remove the ground prong from the power cord and do not use
an adapter plug.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• Make sure the power switch is in the "OFF" position before plugging in or
unplugging the unit to reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Do not use a unit with a damaged power cord. The power cord should not be
altered, jerked, bundled, weighed down, pinched, or tangled. Such actions
could result in electric shock or fire. To unplug the unit, be sure to pull the
plug, not the cord, and do not jerk the cord.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch the plug or power switch with
damp hands.
• This unit should be disassembled or repaired only by qualified service
personnel to reduce the risk of electric shock, injury, or fire.
• Do not make any alterations to the unit. Alterations could result in electric
shock, injury, fire, or damage to the unit.
