When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to
persons, including the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs, which may
be warm. Use oven mitts.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug,
or temperature control in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow
to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning
the appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug,
or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been dropped or
damaged in any manner. Call our toll-free customer service
number for information on examination, repair, or adjustment.
This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This product is provided with a grounded
(3-prong) plug to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If
the plug does not fit into the outlet, have an electrician replace the
outlet.

The length of the cord used on this appliance 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 appliance. The extension cord must
be a grounding-type, 3-wire cord. Care must be taken to arrange
the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled on or accidentally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload do not use another high-
wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.
