22. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Notes on the power cord
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over alonger cord. Extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If one is used:

1. The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
2. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord;
3. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Notes on the cord plug
This appliance has a polarized plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

Use of extension cords
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an extension cord. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it is a UL-listed (in the United States) or a CSA-listed (in Canada), 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet, and that the electrical rating of the cord is 15 amperes (minimum) and 120 volts.
