a dedicated circuit;
That is, a single outlet circuit which powers only that
appliance and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this owner's
manual to be certain.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets,
loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords,
frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire
insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions
could result in electric shock or fire. Periodically
examine the cord of your appliance, and if its
appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug
it, discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord
replaced with an exact replacement part by an
authorized service.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical
abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed
in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to
plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord
exits the appliance.
To disconnect power from the mains, pull out the
mains cord plug. When installing the product, ensure
that the plug is easily accessible.
