PELIGRO DE DESCARGA ELECTRICA

_1_ A'DVE'RTE'NclA '.........

• Conectar a un toma corriente de 3 entra-

das con contacto tJerra.

• No quite la clavija de contacto tierra del

enchufe.

• No use un adaptador.

• No use una extensJ6n para suministro

el_ctrico.

• El no seguir estas instrucciones puede

resultar en muerte, incendio, o descarga

• Instaleel deshumidificadorsabre un piso

nivelado y Io suficientementefuerte para

soportar la unidad con el contenedor de

acjua Ileno.

• Para obtener un mejor rendimiento,permi-

ta par Io menosde 12 a18 pulgadas de

espacio alrededor de la unidad para una

buena circulaci6n del aire.

• Mantenga todas laspuertas exteriores,

ventanas,y otrasaberturas cerradas

cuando el deshumidificadoresta en usa. El

aire hOmedodel exterior aumentara la

carga de trabajo para la unidad.
