SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCES
A double-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of the following: The words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or
“DOUBLE INSULATED” or the double insulation symbol (square within a square).
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means
is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing
a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by
qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they
replace.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
Afin de réduire le risque de choc électrique, cet appareil est muni d’une fiche polarisée (une des lames est plus large).
Cette fiche ne peut être insérée dans une prise polarisée que d’une seule façon. Si la fiche ne peut être insérée dans la prise,
retourner la fiche. Si la fiche ne peut toujours pas être insérée dans la prise, faire installer une prise adéquate par un
électricien qualifié. Ne pas modifier la fiche.
