speci-
fication
page
of this owner's manual to be certain.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets,
loose or
damaged
wall
outlets,
extension
cords,
frayed power
cords,
or
damaged
or cracked wire insulation are
dangerous. Any
of these con-
ditions could result in electric shock or fire.
Periodically
examine the cord of
your appliance,
and if
its
appearance
indicates
damage
or
deterioration,
unplug
it,
discontinue use of the
appliance,
and
have the cord
replaced
with an exact
replacement part by
an authorized servicer.
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
