WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE
FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND INJURY TO PERSONS,
1.
This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
2.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in
order to avoid a hazard.
3.
The appliance should always be placed on
a firm, flat, waterproof surface at least four
feet (1.22m) away from bedside, twelve
inches (30cm) from the wall and out of
reach of patients, children and pets. Be
sure the appliance is in a stable position
and the power cord is away from heated
surfaces and out of the way to prevent the
humidifier from being tipped over.
4.
The appliance should not be left
unattended in a closed room since
air could become saturated and leave
condensation on walls and furniture.
Leave room door partly open.
5.
Before using the appliance, extend
the cord and inspect for any signs of
damage. Do not use the unit if the cord
has been damaged.
6.
The appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other) as a safety
feature. This plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this
safety feature.
7.
To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the
appliance directly into a 120V AC
electrical outlet.
