POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than
the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not
attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify the plug in any
way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do
not use that outlet.
