SJTW-A o SJTOW-A.

19
Antes del uso, verique que el cable de extensión esté
en buenas condiciones. Asegúrese de usar un cable de
extensión lo sucientemente fuerte como para poder
transportar toda la electricidad que su equipo consumirá.
Un cable de extensión demasiado no causará una caída
de tensión en la línea produciendo pérdida de potencia y
recalentamiento.
m¡ADVERTENCIA! Para reducir el riesgo de
quemaduras, incendio, choque eléctrico o lesiones personales:
4. Desenchufe la unidad del tomacorriente cuando no esté
siendo usada y antes de instalar o desinstalar partes.

artefacto sea usado por, sobre, o cerca de niños,
minusválidos o discapacitados.
7. Opere este artefacto solo para su uso especíco según
lo descrito en este manual. No use accesorios no
recomendados por el fabricante.
8. Nunca opere este artefacto si tiene un cable o enchufe
dañado, si no funciona correctamente, si se ha dejado
caer o se ha dañado, o si se ha sumergido en agua.
Devuelva el artefacto a un centro de servicio para su
inspección y reparación.
9. No opere este artefacto donde se estén usando productos
en aerosol o donde se administre oxígeno.
10. Para desconectar, mueva todos los controles a la posición

artefacto posee un enchufe polarizado (es decir, una pata
es más ancha que la otra). Use este artefacto solo con un
cable de extensión polarizado y aprobado por UL, CSA o
ETL, y recomendado para uso en interiores.
El enchufe del artefacto encajará en el receptáculo del
cable de extensión polarizado de una sola manera. Si el
enchufe del artefacto no entra por completo dentro del
receptáculo del cable de extensión, invierta las clavijas
del enchufe. Si el enchufe aún no encaja dentro del
receptáculo del cable de extensión, obtenga un cable
de extensión polarizado correcto. Un cable de extensión
polarizado requerirá el uso de un tomacorriente polarizado
de pared. El enchufe del cable de extensión encajará
en el tomacorriente polarizado de la pared de una sola
manera. Si el enchufe no entra por completo dentro
del tomacorriente de la pared, invierta las clavijas del
enchufe. Si el enchufe aún no encaja en el tomacorriente,
comuníquese con un electricista calicado para la
instalación de un tomacorriente de pared apropiado. No
modique el enchufe del artefacto, ni el receptáculo del
