SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Graphic Symbol Indications:
Indicates content that could lead to death or injury if handled incorrectly.
Disassembly prohibited.
• Do not disassemble, repair, or modify. Doing so can cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
• Repair by persons other than trained repair technicians can be dangerous.
• Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not use this product with any solid-state
speed control device.
Product use.
• Use on a level, stable floor. Placing product on uneven and unstable floors can cause the product to
fall over, leading to injury or damage to property in the vicinity of the product.
• Place the product in locations where it will not get entangled in curtains or hoisting strings, etc.
Failing to do so can cause damage to articles near the product.
• Always grasp the power plug to unplug it, do not unplug it by pulling on the power cord. Pulling on the
power cord can damage it, which can cause fire or electric shock.
• Always unplug the power plug from the electric socket when the product will be unused for extended
periods of time. Failing to do so can lead to fire or electric shock caused by short-circuits due to
reduced insulation.
• This product employs overload protection (fuse). A blown fuse indicates an overload or a short-circuit.
If the fuse blows, unplug the product from the outlet. Replace the fuse as per the user servicing
instructions (follow product marking for proper fuse rating) and check the product. If the replacement
fuse blows, a short-circuit occurred and the product should be discarded or returned to IRIS USA, Inc.
for inspection and/or repair.
Unplug.
• Unplug the power plug from the electric socket when performing maintenance, inspecting, or moving
the product.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
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.
• Grasp the plug and remove from the receptacle or other outlet device. Do not unplug by pulling on the
cord.
Use power plugs and power cords correctly.
• Failing to do so can cause fire or electric shock due to short-circuits.
• Insert the power plug securely all the way into the electric socket.
• Regularly remove dust from the power plug.
• When dust is allowed to build up, insulation is hampered due to moisture, which can cause fire or
electric shock.
• Use only 120V AC. Other current/voltage can cause fires.
• Do not use if the power cord or the power plug is damaged, or if the power plug is loose when
plugged into the electric socket. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock due to short-circuit.
Do not damage the power cord.
• Damaging, modifying, forcefully bending, pulling, twisting, putting heavy objects, or pinching can
damage the power cord, which can cause fire or electric shock.
• Do not use if the power cord is bundled up. Doing so can cause fires. Always extend the cord out
before using.
• Do not pull on the power cord when carrying or storing the product. Pulling on the power cord can
cause fire or electric shock.
Abnormalities and malfunctions can cause smoke, re, or electric shock.
Stop use immediately, cut power, and unplug from the electric socket when abnormalities or malfunctions
occur.
