Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before
operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.

maker at least once a year. More frequent
cleaning may be required in areas that con-
tain heavy amounts of minerals in the water
supply.
• Always wear rubber gloves when handling
cleaning solutions.
