PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL HAZARDS

Power outlets with poor electrical connections can  become dangerously 

overheated

 and may result in severe injury, damage to property, or fire.  

High-power appliances require more electric current than most household items.  

Old or high-use outlets can have poor or loose connections. The high current 

required by this product, combined with a poor electrical connection can cause 

outlets to overheat and melt.  It is important to make sure that any outlets used 

with this product have strong electrical contact.

Follow the steps below for safe use of ANY high-power appliances:

1. 

Inspect outlet connection and contact strength.  

Insert a standard, two-prong plug (without ground connection) into 

the outlet.  Ensure that both prong connections offer strong and equal 

resistance when inserted. If the two-prong plug does not offer strong 

resistance or one prong feels easier to insert than the other, this outlet 

could be unsafe for high-power appliances. Have an electrician 

inspect and/or replace the outlet before use.

2. 

Ensure that the outlet is no older than 15 years.

3. 

If you are unsure about an outlet, have an electrician inspect and/or 

replace the outlet.

4. 

Inspect outlets and plugs after each use.
