SERVICING OF DOUBLE INSULATED
APPLIANCES
A double-insulated appliance is marked with
one or more of the following: the words "DOU-
BLE INSULATION" or "DOUBLE INSULATED"
or the double insulation symbol (square within a
square).
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of
insulation are provided instead of grounding. No
grounding means is provided on a double-insulat-
ed appliance, nor should a means for grounding
be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-
insulated appliance requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system, and should be done
only by qualifi ed service personnel. Replacement
parts for a double-insulated appliance must be
identical to the parts they replace.

grounding conductor and grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER!

conductor can result in risk of electric shock.
Check with qualifi ed electrician or service per-
son if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded, Do not modify the plug pro-
vided with the appliance. If it will not fi t the outlet,
have proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed techni-
cian.
