SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
In a double-insulation product, two systems of insulation are provided instead
of grounding. No grounding is provided on a double-insulated product, nor
should a means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a double-
insulated product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts of a double-insulated product must be identical to the
parts they replace. A double-insulated product is marked with the words
“DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED”. The symbol “ ” may
also be marked on the product.
