- 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. Use
only the power cord and plug provided.

- 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 has 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 with

amperage 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)
(Fig. A).

5. Remove fuse by using the screwdriver to gently lift each end of

the fuse (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
time. Do not push on the center of the fuse—it is fragile and
may break.

7. Slide the fuse cover closed using the screwdriver. When closed,

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

8. Plug your appliance into the outlet and turn the power on.

9. If the replacement fuse blows, a short-circuit may be present and

the product should be discarded or returned to an authorized
service facility for examination and/or repair.
