appliances on the same circuit
may exceed the current rating of
the circuit breaker.
WARNING: Ensure the power
cord is not installed so that
it is pinched or against a
sharp edge and ensure that
the power cord is stored or
secured to avoid tripping or
snagging to reduce the risk of
re, electric shock or injury to
