hot. This does not affect the operation or performance of the
product. · Periodically examine the cord of your appliance, and if its
appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it,
discontinue use of the appliance, and have the cord replaced with
an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer. · Prevent dust collecting on the power plug pins or outlet. This may
