When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock and injury to persons or property. Read all instructions before using any
appliance.

same outlet. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into the receptacle
Do not run the power cord over carpeting or other heat insulators. Do not cover the cord.
