WARNING!
Before cleaning, assembling or disassembling the Vacuum Sealer,
make sure the Vacuum Sealer is OFF and the PLUG IS REMOVED FROM THE
OUTLET/POWER SOURCE!
GROUNDING
This appliance must be grounded while in use to
protect the operator from electrical shock. The
appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord
and a 3-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper
grounding-type receptacle. The appliance has a
plug that looks like Figure A. An adaptor, Figure B,
should be used for connecting Figure A plugs to two-
prong receptacles. The grounding tab which extends
from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box as
shown in Figure C using a metal screw.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong
grounding-type plugs and a 3-pole cord connector
that accepts the plug from the appliance. Use
only extension cords having an electrical rating not
less than the rating of the appliance. 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.
