LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS

2. To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If any are
found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the line cord
replaced. Please return it to our Service Department or to an authorized service

on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray and break.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service
agent or similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.
