General Safety

Never change a light bulb without first making sure that the current is switched off.

Do not use a fork or a knife or anything that is made of metal to remove toast from a toaster when it is plugged in.

If you see sparks or smoke from an electrical appliance, it is telling you that something is wrong. Unplug it and call an electrician.

Do not work on an electrical appliance unless you know exactly what you are doing and make sure it is not plugged in.
