GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT
INTERRUPTER PROTECTION
This pressure washer is provided with a
ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI)
built into the plug of the power-supply
cord. This device provides additional
protection from the risk of electric
shock. Should replacement of the
ground-fault circuit-interrupter or cord
become necessary, use only identical
replacement parts.
The Consumer Product Safety Com-
mission recommends that you test all
GFCI's once a month. Since the fre-
quency of pressure washer use varies,
we recommend that you test the GFCI
as part of your start-up procedure each
time you use your pressure washer. It
might need to be reset before working
with the pressure washer. To learn how
to perform the GFCI test and how to re-
set it, visit http://www.karcher-
help.com and search for GFCI for fur-
ther instructions.
DO NOT USE IF GFCI FAILS TEST.
NOTE: The actual appearance of the
GFCI may be different from this illustra-
tion.

EXTENSION CORDS

vice.
SERVICING OF A DOUBLE-
INSULATED PRODUCT
In a double-insulated product, two sys-
tems of insulation are provided instead
of grounding. No grounding means is
provided on a double-insulated prod-
uct, nor should a means for grounding
be added to the product. Servicing a
double-insulated product requires ex-
treme care and knowledge of the sys-
tem, and should be done only by
qualified service personnel. Replace-
ment parts for a double-insulated prod-
uct must be identical to the parts they
replace.
A double-insulated product is marked
with the words "DOUBLE INSULATION"
or "DOUBLE INSULATED". The sym-
bol " " may also be marked on the
product.
