indicates an overload or short-circuit situation. If the fuse blows,
unplug the product from the outlet. Replace the fuse as per the
user servicing instructions (follow product marking for proper fuse
rating) and check the product. If the replacement fuse blows, a
short-circuit may be present and the product should be discarded
