CAUTION concerning the Power Cord
Most appliances recommend they be placed
upon a dedicated circuit;
That is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that
appliance and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's
manual to be certain. Do not overload wall outlets.
Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall out-
lets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or dam-
aged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any
of these conditions could result in electric shock or
fire. Periodically examine the cord of your appliance,
and if its appearance indicates damage or deterio-
ration, unplug it, discontinue use of the appliance,
and have the cord replaced with an exact replace-
ment part by an authorized service center. Protect
the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse,
such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a
door, or walked upon.
Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and
the point where the cord exits the appliance.
To disconnect power from the mains, pull out the
mains cord plug. When installing the product,
ensure that the plug is easily accessible.
