appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use
of the appliance, and have the cord replaced
with an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the
appliance.
