CORD SAFETY
•
The
of cord used on this appliance was
to reduce tangling or tripping hazards.
•
If o longer cord is necessary, on approved extension
cord may be used. The electrical rating of the
extension cord must be equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of the air purifier (see rating label
marked on product).
•
Core must be token to arrange the extension cord so
that it will not dro�e over the countertop or tabletop
where it con be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.

IONIZER
This appliance has an optional ionizer feature which,
