- Risk of fire. Your appliance may be equipped with a detachable
power supply or a cord/plug with a safety device such as a fuse.
The detachable external power supply and cord have no user
replaceable parts. If the power supply or cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly
qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Use only the detachable
external power supply and cord that comes with your product.

- Before plugging power cord into electrical outlet, be sure that
all electrical information on the rating label, including voltage, is
compatible with your outlet’s power supply.

- Never use the cord as a handle or otherwise yank, strain or stretch
the power cord.

- While the product is plugged in, do not insert or allow foreign
objects to enter any input or output opening as this may cause risk
of electric shock or fire, or damage the product.

- A loose fit between wall outlet (receptacle) and plug may cause
overheating and distortion of the plug. Discontinue use of the
product in this outlet. Contact a qualified electrician to replace
loose or worn outlets.

- This appliance may have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other.) To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended
to 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. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

- Before moving, repositioning, servicing, cleaning and when not in
use, use the product controls to turn off the power and then unplug.
To disconnect from outlet, grasp and pull only the plug. Also, power
off and unplug if the product will be left unattended for an extended
period of time or during electrical storms.

SERVICING WARNING—To reduce risk of fire, electrical shock
and injury to persons, observe the following:

- Clean your product regularly, only as is instructed in this manual.

Prior to cleaning, turn off the power on your product and unplug. Do
not use gasoline, thinners, solvents, ammonias or other chemicals
for cleaning. Refer to the CLEANING instructions provided.

- Do not open appliance housing while product is plugged in. To
avoid risk of shock, all service and/or repairs must be done by a
Vornado Authorized Service Center.

- This product may have an overload protection (fuse) located in
the plug. A blown fuse indicates an overload or short-circuit. If the
fuse blows, follow these instructions to replace and reinstall the
safety device:

User Servicing Instructions

1. Using the product controls, turn off the appliance.

2. Grasp the plug (not the cord) and disconnect from the outlet.

3. Risk of Fire. Replace fuse only with 2.5 Amp, 125 Volt fuse as
approved by Vornado Consumer Service. For an authorized
replacement fuse, please contact Vornado Consumer Service.

4. Once the replacement is received, use a small flat-head
screwdriver to slide open the fuse cover (located on the plug)
(See Fig. A).

5. Remove fuse by using the screwdriver to gently lift each end of
the fuse (See Fig. B).

6. Install the replacement fuse by using the screwdriver to gently
push each metal end of the fuse into the receptacle one at a

closed, the cover should fit completely in the plug. No part of
the cover should stick out (See Fig. C).
