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

insulated product is marked with the words «DOUBLE
INSULATION» or «DOUBLE INSULATED».
The symbol may also be marked on the product.
