WARNING
The following 11 items concern the possibility of the
user's death or serious injuries if the user operates
the product without observing the warnings or in the
wrong way.
(1) Install the product at a horizontal, stable place,
and be sure to secure it with the fixing angle (an
accessory).
(2) Never disassemble, repair, or modify the product
unless you are a repair mechanic. Otherwise,
there is a possibility of fire or abnormal operation.
(3) Be sure to ground the product
•E If your electrical outlet has no grounding termi-
nal, ask your electrical appliances store to have
it attached to the outlet. Improper grounding
could cause electric shock.
•E Do not connect the grounding wire to a gas
pipe or water pipe.
(4) Do not dip the product in water, or expose it to
water. There is a possibility of a shortcircuit or
electric shock.
(5) Periodically check that the power plug blades and
their surfaces are free of dust, and insert the plug
into an electrical outlet all the way so it will not be
loose. Dust on the power plug or its imperfect
connection could cause electric shock or fire.
(6) Keep the power cord free of damage. Binding the
power cord, placing a heavy object on it, or pinch-
ing it may damage the cord, possibly causing
electric shock or fire.
Keep the power cord away from a heat source.
(7) Do not use the product outdoors.
Use of the product at a place exposed to rains
could cause electric leak or shock.
(8) If you wish to dispose of the product as waste,
ask an official organization or your dealer to do
so. (You may be charged for its disposal.)
Abandoning the product could cause an accident
from its modification or use for other than the pur-
pose of sake warming by a third party.
(9) Be sure to use an electrical outlet of the rating
of AC110-120V 15A or AC220-240V 7.5A (mini-
mum). Do not use a double socket or a branched
socket to avoid overheat or fire.
(10) If you intentionally bend the power plug blades to
make the plug tight in an electrical outlet, it could
cause a fire due to faulty contact.
(11) Do not leave the product to be used by children
alone. Do not use it within reach of infants. This is
important to avoid burns, electric shock, and
injuries.
CAUTION
The following items (1) to (14) concern the possibility
of injuries to the user or material damage if the user
operates the product without observing the cautions
indicated therein.
(1) When you pull out the power plug, be sure to hold
the plug itself, not the cord. Pulling out the plug
by the cord could cause electric shock, shortcir-
cuit, or fire.
(2) Do not touch or use the power plug, power
switch, or other electric parts with a wet hand. It
could cause electric shock.
(3) Do not drop the product, or subject it to strong
shock. It could cause trouble or fire.
(4) Dispose of the packing plastic bag as soon as
you have taken the product out of it. Do not leave
it within reach of children. This is important to
prevent suffocation.
(5) Keep the power plug out of your electrical outlet
when the product is not in use. Keeping it
plugged in could cause electric shock or a fire
due to electric leakage.
(6) Do not use the product if the power cord plug is
damaged, or is loose in the electrical outlet.
Otherwise, there is a possibility of a shortcircuit or
electric shock or fire.
(7) Do not use the product for other than Japanese
sake. Otherwise, the product could fail due to a
burn or corrosion, for example.
