The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has avoltage ratingthat
matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading
house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace
immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows
cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to
damage the power cord.
Extension cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use
an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary
that it be a 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that
the electrical rating of the cord be 220 volts and at least 13 amperes.
Power bar with surge protection
Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very
susceptible to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.
If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges / outages; it is
suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances you use. The surge
protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the appliance it is connected to. If
you have any questions regarding the type and size of surge protector needed contact a licensed electrician
in your area.
Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your product
warranty.
