IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons including the following:

WORK AREA

Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas can increase the

likelihood of accidents.

Do not set liquids on or near Equipment. Liquids entering Equipment will

increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not cover Equipment or stack other non-approved objects on top of

Equipment. Unintended items on Equipment can increase the risk of fire.

Do not use Equipment outdoors. Outdoor conditions can increase the risk of

electrical shock.

Do not place Equipment on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a

heated oven. This creates an increased risk of fire and electric shock.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Equipment plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any

way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Modified plugs and non-matching
outlets will increase the risk of electric shock.

Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes,

radiators, ranges, refrigerators and other foodservice equipment. There is
an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

Do not expose Equipment to wet conditions. Do not immerse cord, plug

or Equipment in water or other liquids. Water or other liquids entering
Equipment will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Do not yank cord to disconnect from power

outlet. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the
Equipment. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, moving parts or
the edge of table or counter. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk

of electric shock.
