f) Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the
appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
g) Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
h) Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
i) Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
j) If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for less amperes or
watts than the appliance rating may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be
tripped over or pulled.
k) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will 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. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully inserted. Do not attempt
to defeat this safety feature.
