If an extension cord is used, make sure it also has either a polarized or grounded plug and that the cords can be securely connected. Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should be replaced by a qualified service technician. Overloaded outlets and extension cords are fire hazards and should be avoided. 4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLES Ventilation openings in the cabinet release heat generated during operation.
