SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug — one blade is wider than the other. To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified elec-
trician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the plug in any way.
ELECTRICAL CORD
The cord length of this knife was selected to reduce safety hazards that may occur with
a longer cord. If more cord length is needed, an extension cord with a polarized plug
may be used. It should be rated not less than 10 amperes, 120 Volts, and have
Underwriters Laboratories listing. Handle cord carefully for longer life; avoid jerking or
straining it at outlet and appliance connections.
