The “Safeguards” statement reproduced below is in accordance
with Underwriters Laboratories “Standard for Safety, UL 122,
Photographic Equipment.”

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS©

When using your photographic equipment, basic safety precautions
should always be followed, including the following:

1. Read and understand all instructions.

2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children. Do not leave appliance unattended while in
use.

3. Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.

4. Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or if the appli­ance has been dropped or damaged—until it has been exam­ined by a qualified serviceman.

5. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot
surfaces.

6. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a suitable current
rating should be used. Cords rated for less amperage than the
appliance may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the
cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.

7. Always unplug appliance from electrical outlet when not in use.
Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp plug and pull to
disconnect.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS©

8. Let appliance cool completely before putting away. Loop cord
loosely around appliance when storing.

9. To protect against electrical shock hazards, do not immerse this
appliance in water or other liquids.

10. To avoid electric shock hazard, do not disassemble this appli­ance, but take it to a qualified serviceman when some service or
repair work is required. Incorrect reassembly can cause electric
shock hazard when the appliance is used subsequently.
