GROUNDED PLUG
As a safety feature, this product is equipped
with a grounded plug, which will only t into a

electric shock. Consult a qualied electrician
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning: This appliance is equipped with a
tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of
the outer cover. To reduce the risk of re or
electric shock, do not attempt to remove the
outer cover. There are no user-serviceable
parts inside. Repair should be done only by
authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
a) A short power-supply cord is provided to
reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
b) Extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If an extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the extension
cord should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance;
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounding-type
3-wire cord; and
3) The cord should be arranged so that it will
