is provided on a double-insulated product nor should a
means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing
a double-insulated product requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system and should only be done by
qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a
double-insulated product must be identical to those
parts in the product. A double insulated product is mar-
ked with the words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE
INSULATED”.
The symbol may also be marked on the product.
This sewing machine is intended for household use only.
