Troubleshooting; Warranty Information - Emerson HC1100 Manual De Instalación

Electric Shock Hazard: Using an ungrounded (no earth ground) or
improperly connected appliance can result in serious injury or death from
electrical shock.
This appliance must be earth (grounded). This steaming hot water tap is equipped with a cord that
has a grounding conductor and earth ground pin. The plug must be connected to an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and earth (grounded) in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as
to whether the steaming hot water tap is properly earth (grounded).
Personal Injury: This tank is a non-pressurized tank. DO NOT modify this system.
DO NOT close vent tube or connect other type taps or valves to the tank. Use only the
InSinkErator tap supplied. Use only parts provided. Contact an authorized InSinkErator
Service agent for repairs or replacement components.
Fire Hazard: To minimize possibility of fire, DO NOT store flammable items such as
rags, paper or aerosol cans near the tank. DO NOT store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Property Damage: To avoid water damage, replace any loose or split tubing.
Periodically inspect the unit for any signs of leakage and immediately remove from
service any unit suspected of leaking.
A steaming hot water tap, like any water heater, has a limited life and will eventually fail.
To avoid possible property damage, this steaming hot water tap should be regularly
examined for leakage and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to an
appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those applications
where any leakage could cause property damage.
