Important Safeguards; Short Cord Instructions - DeLonghi ICM18 WB Instruction Manual

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, inclu-
ding the following:
• Read all instructions.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles and knobs.
• To protect against fire, electrical shock and personal injury, do not immerse cord, plug or
appliance in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before fitting
or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
• Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance malfunctions, or has
been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service faci-
lity for examination, repair or adjustment.
• The use of accessory attachments or spare parts not recommended by the appliance manu-
facturer may result in fire, electrical shock or personal injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electrical burner, or in a heated oven.
• Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect,
turn any control to "off", then remove plug from wall outlet.
• Do not use the appliance for other than the intended use.
• Appliances with Glass Containers:
A. The container is designed for use with this appliance. It must never be used on a range top.
B. Do not set a hot container on a wet or cold surface.
C. Do not use a cracked container or a container having a loose or weakened handle.
D. Do not clean container with cleansers, steel wool pads, or other abrasive material.
- A short power cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
- Longer, detachable power supply cords or extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use.
- If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is provided with 3- wire, groun-
ding type cord, the extension should be a GROUNDING TYPE 3 - WIRE CORD. The lon-
ger cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter-top or table top
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
- Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug.
If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
