IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
CAUTION:
Please read and retain for your safety.
Electrical energy can perform many useful
functions. This Appliance has been engineered
and manufactured to assure your personal
safety. But improper use can result in potential
electrical shock or fire hazards. In order not to
defeat the safeguards incorporated in this
Appliance, observe the following basic rules for
its installation, use and servicing.
And also follow all warnings and instructions
marked on your Appliance.
INSTALLATION
1 Your Appliance is equipped with a
grounding-type AC line plug (three-blade
type), a plug having a third (grounding)
pin.
This plug will only fit into a grounding-type
power outlet. This is a safety feature.
Should you be unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, contact your electrician to
replace your outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding-type plug.
2 Operate the Appliance only from a power
source as indicated on the Appliance or
refer to the operating instructions for this
information. If you are not sure of the type
of power supply to your home, consult
your Appliance dealer or local power
company. For battery operation, refer to
the operating instructions.
3 Overloaded AC outlets and extension
cords are dangerous, and so are frayed
power cords and broken plugs. They may
result in a shock or fire hazard. Call your
service technician for replacement.
4 Do not allow anything to rest on or roll
over the power cord, and do not place the
Appliance where power cord is subject to
traffic or abuse. This may result in a shock
or fire hazard.
5 Do not use this Appliance near water —
for example, near a bathtub, washbowl,
kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet
basement, or near swimming pool, etc.
6 If an outside antenna is connected to the
Appliance, be sure the antenna system is
grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast
and supporting structure, grounding of the
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit,
size of grounding conductors, location of
antenna discharge unit, connection
requirements for the grounding electrode.
