Read Instructions

 

 — All the safety and operating instructions should

be read before the appliance is operated.

2.

 

Retain Instructions

 

 — The safety and operating instructions should

be retained for future reference.

3.

 

Heed Warnings

 

 — All warnings on the appliance and in the operating

instructions should be adhered to.

4.

 

Follow Instructions

 

 — All operating and use instructions should be

followed.

5.

 

Water and Moisture

 

 — The appliance should not be used near water

— for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in
a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.

6.

 

Carts and Stands

 

 — The appliance should be used only with a cart or

stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

6A. An appliance and cart combination

should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surface may cause the appliance
and cart combination to overturn.

7.

 

Wall or Ceiling Mounting

 

 — The appliance should be mounted to a

wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

8.

 

Ventilation

 

 – The appliance should be situated so that its location or

position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the
appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface
that may block the ventilation openings; or if placed in a built-in instal-
lation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air
through the ventilation openings, there should be free space of at least
5 cm (2 in.) and open up behind the appliance.

9.

 

Heat

 

 — The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such

as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.

10.

 

Power Sources

 

 — The appliance should be connected to a power sup-

ply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the appliance.

11.

 

Polarization

 

 — If the appliance is provided with a polarized plug hav-

ing one blade wider than the other, please read the following informa-
tion: The polarization of the plug is a safety feature. The polarized plug
will only fit the outlet one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
outlet, try reversing it. If there is still trouble, the user should seek the
services of a qualified electrician. Under no circumstances should the
user attempt to defeat the polarization of the plug.

12.

 

Power-Cord Protection

 

 — Power-supply cords should be routed so

that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to the cords at plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appli-
ance.

13.

 

Cleaning 

 

— The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended

by the manufacturer.

14.

 

Nonuse Periods

 

 — The power cord of the appliance should be

unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.

15.

 

Object and Liquid Entry

 

 — Care should be taken so that objects do

not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

16.

 

Damage Requiring Service

 

 — The appliance should be serviced by

qualified service personnel when:
A. The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance; 

or

C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a 

marked change in performance; or

E.

The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

17.

beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servicing
should be referred to qualified service personnel.
