NOTE: Switches may become sticky from use. Unplug the machine and use a wet
cloth, moistened with water and a mild detergent, to clean around the edges of the
switch paddles until they function freely. Work the switches back and forth a few times
to loosen any dried residue under switch. Leaving switches sticky will damage or burn
out the switches. Clean carefully, using caution not to allow water or other liquids to
infiltrate the switch. Dry with a soft cotton cloth.
