• Risk of burns. Power to the appliance should be turned off and the appliance allowed to cool before
servicing. To disconnect power to the appliance, turn controls to off, then remove plug from outlet.

• Do not install damaged, incomplete or substitute components.

• Do not burn wood or other materials in this appliance.

• Any safety screen or guard removed for servicing must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.

• It is imperative that the control compartments, circulating blower and its passageway in the appliance
and are kept clean. The appliance should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualifi ed
service person. More frequent cleaning may be required due to excessive lint from carpeting, bedding
material, etc. The appliance area must be kept clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and
other fl ammable vapors and liquids.

• Under no circumstances should this appliance be modifi ed.

• Do not use this appliance if any part has been under water. Immediately call a qualifi ed service technician
to inspect the appliance and to replace any part of the control system which has been under water.

• Do not operate the appliance with the glass door removed, cracked or broken. Replacement of the
glass should be done by a licensed or qualifi ed service person.

• Do not strike or slam shut the appliance glass door.

• Keep the packaging material out of reach of children and dispose of the material in a safe manner. As
with all plastic bags, these are not toys and should be kept away from children and infants.

• Servicing should be done only while the appliance is disconnected from the power supply circuit.

• Always unplug appliance when not in use.

• Do not operate this appliance with a damaged cord or plug after the appliance malfunctions, has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to authorized service facility for examination,
electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Never locate appliance where it may fall into a bathtub or other water container.

• Do not run cord under carpeting. Do not cover cord with throw rugs, runners, or the like. Arrange cord
away from traffi c area and where it will not be tripped over.

• Connect to properly grounded outlets only.

• Do not insert or allow foreign objects to enter any ventilation or exhaust opening as this may cause an
electric shock or fi re, or damage the appliance.

• To prevent a possible fi re, do not block air intakes or exhaust in any manner. Do not use on soft
surfaces, like a carpet, where openings may become blocked.

• Always plug appliances directly into a wall outlet/receptacle. Never use an extension cord or
relocatable power tap (outlet/power strip).

• Ensure clearances to combustibles are maintained when building a mantel or shelves above the
appliance. Elevated temperatures on the wall or in the air above the appliance can cause melting,
discolouration or damage to decorations, a T.V. or other electronic components.
