Your safety and the safety of others are very important to us. We have provided
many important safety messages throughout this manual and on the appliance
itself. Always read and follow all posted safety messages. 
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, injury, or death to persons using or near
this appliance, please follow some basic safety precautions. These precautions
include, but are not limited to, the following:

● This appliance is not intended for use by any persons (including children) with

   reduced or restricted physical, mental, or sensory capabilities, or lack of
   experience and knowledge, unless under the direct supervision of a person
   responsible for their safety.

● Please keep plastic bags and sheets out of the reach of children as they might

   be mistakenly used for play. Packaging materials can become airtight chambers

   damage the power cord.

   a damaged cord or electrical plugin. All repairs and servicing must be performed
   by qualified service personnel. Use only authorized TOSOT factory OEM parts.

   materials near the appliance.
