IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic precautions should always be followed
to reduce risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons or property,
including the following:
1.
Read all instructions before using this water dispenser.
2.
To avoid burns, do not let hot water touch bare skin. Keep combustible
materials, such as furniture, pillows, bedding, papers, clothes and
curtains away from the heat vent at the rear of the unit.
3.
Extreme caution and reasonable supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used by or near children or invalids.
4.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions, has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
5.
Do not use outdoors.
6.
Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs,
runners or the like. Arrange cord away from traffic area where it will not
be tripped over.
7.
Connect to properly polarized outlets only.
8.
Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or
exhaust opening as this may cause an electric shock, fire, or damage
the water cooler.
9.
To prevent overload and blown fuses, be sure that no other appliance is
plugged into the same outlet (receptacle) or into another outlet
(receptacle) wired into the same circuit.
10.
It is normal for the water cooler's plug and cord to feel warm to the
touch. A plug or cord, which becomes hot to the touch or becomes
distorted in shape may be a result of a worn electrical outlet. Worn
outlets or receptacles should be replaced prior to further use of the
water cooler. Plugging water cooler into a worn outlet /receptacle may
result in overheating of the power cord or fire.
11.
We do not recommend use of an extension cord as it may overheat and
cause a risk of fire. However, if you have to use an extension cord, the
cord should be No. 14 AWG minimum size and rated not less than 1875
watts, and has to be used only for supplying power to this water cooler.
12.
Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into appropriate receptacle.
Please remember that receptacles also deteriorate due to aging and
continuous use: check periodically for signs of overheating or
deformations evidenced by the plug. Do not use the receptacle and
CALL your electrician.
13.
Check that neither the appliance nor the power cable has been
damaged in any way during transportation.
14.
Place the water dispenser away from direct sunlight and maintain a
distance of 15 cm from the wall.
CAUTION: To prevent electric shock match wide blade of plug to wide slot, fully
insert.
