Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for house-
hold use only.
This appliance is equipped with a grounded-
type 3-wire cord (3-prong plug). This type
of plug will only fit into an electrical outlet
made for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If the plug should fail to fit
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the grounding pin by
modifying the plug in any way.

mended or sold by Hamilton

fire, electrical shock, or injury.

10. Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter or touch hot surfaces.

before operating appliance.
13. To wash mixing shaft, unplug mixer
and follow the cleaning instructions
provided on page 7.
14. Do not use this appliance for other
than intended use.
The length of the cord used on this appli-
ance was selected to reduce the hazards
of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a
longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary,
an approved extension cord may be used.
The electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the rating
of the drink mixer. Care must be taken to
arrange extension cord so that it will not
drape over countertop or tabletop where it
can be pulled on by children or accidental-
ly tripped over.
