Warning
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in an electrical shock hazard. If the power cord is damaged, have
it replaced by an authorized FORNO Products service centre.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a three-prong plug, which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimize the chance of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the supplied power cord.
This appliance requires a standard 115 Volt~/60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground plug.
The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from
the receptacle.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or
service technician install an outlet near the appliance.
EXTENSION CORD
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use
an extension cord with this unit. However, if you must use an extension cord it is absolutely necessary that it
be a UL/CUL-Listed,3-wire grounded appliance-type extension cord with a ground plug and outlet, and that
the electrical rating of the cord be 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.
SURGE PROTECTOR
Most electrical appliances use a series of electric control boards to operate. These boards are very susceptible
to power surges and could be damaged or destroyed.
If the appliance is going to be used in an area or if your city / country is prone to power surges / outages; it is
suggested that you use a power surge protector for all electrical devices / appliances you use. The surge
protector that you select must have a surge block high enough to protect the appliance it is connected to.
If you have any questions regarding the type and size of surge protector needed, contact a licensed electrician
in your area.
Damages due to power surges are not considered a manufacturer covered defect and will void your product
warranty.
