lowed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including

the following:
1)  Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2)  To avoid fire or shock hazard, plug the appliance directly into a 120 V AC

electrical outlet.

Keep the cord out of heavy traffic areas.  DO NOT let the cord hang over

the edge of a table or counter.  To avoid fire hazard, NEVER put the cord

under rugs, near heat registers, radiator, stoves, or heaters.

uids.  Do not use near water.

children, or by disabled people.

cleaning, or whenever the fan is not in use.  Be sure to pull by the plug and

not the cord.

7)  Avoid contact with moving parts.  DO NOT operate without fan grills prop-

erly in place.

8) DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, if motor fan

fails to rotate, after the appliance malfunctions, or if it has been dropped

or damaged in any manner.  Return appliance to manufacturer for 

examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment, or repair.

9)  DO NOT operate in the presence of explosive and/or flammable fumes.
10)  Use appliance only for intended household use as described in this
