IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS APPLIANCE
When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed.
WARNING –
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
POLARIZATION INSTRUCTIONS – HOUSEHOLD MODELS
3
Models RSL1 and RSL2
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance is equipped with a polarized
alternating current line plug (a plug having
one blade wider than the other). This plug
will fit into the power outlet only one way.
This is a safety feature. If you are unable to
insert the plug fully into the outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug should still
fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS – COMMERCIAL MODELS
Model RSL2C
This appliance must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding
attachment plug that looks like the illustration above. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No
adapter should be used with this appliance.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or ser vice
person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
