interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power supply
cord. This device provides additional protection from the risk
of electric shock. Should replacement of the plug or cord
become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that

SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-INSULATED
APPLIANCE
In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation
are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is
provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a double-
insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of
the system, and should be done only by qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for a double insulated prod-
uct must be identical to the parts they replace. A double-
insulated product is marked with the words “DOUBLE
INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED.” The symbol
may also be marked on the product.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only extension cords that are intended for outdoor use.
These extension cords are identified by a marking “Accept-
able for use with outdoor appliances; store indoors while not
in use.” Use only extension cords having an electrical rating
not less than the rating of the product. Do not use damaged
extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and
replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do
not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from
heat and sharp edges. Always disconnect the extension
cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product
from the extension cord.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all
connections dry and off the ground. Do not touch plug with
wet hands.
