PRODUCT VIEW

SERVICING  OF  DOUBLE-INSULATED 

APPLIANCE:

In  a  double-insulated  appliance,  two 

systems  of  insulation  are  provided  instead  of  grounding.  No 

grounding means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, 

nor should a means of 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 Rainbow service personnel. Replacement parts for a 

double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they 

replace. A double-insulated appliance is marked with the words 

“DOUBLE  INSULATION”  or  “DOUBLE-INSULATED.”  The 

symbol  (square  within  a  square)  may  also  be  marked  on  the 

appliance.
