Electrical safety information
WARNING
• Do not touch the cable if your hands are wet.
There is a risk of electric shock.
• To protect against fire, electric shock, or injury,
do not immerse the power cord, plugs, or the
appliance in water or any other liquid.
• Always unplug the appliance from the main
power source prior to servicing or removing the
cover of the appliance.
• If a plug with grounding is supplied, the
appliance must be grounded by connecting it
to a grounded 3-pin power outlet. Grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock if there is a
short circuit.
• If a plug without grounding is supplied, you must
ground the grounding terminal on the back of
the unit before using the appliance. Grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock if there is a
short circuit. Consult a qualified electrician to
ensure that the appliance is properly grounded.
