HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade 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.
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord or detachable power-supply cord is provided to
reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available
and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long detachable power-
supply cord or extension cord is used:
a. The marked electrical rating of the cord set, or extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
b. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally; and
c. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set, or extension cord
should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. Do not pull, twist or otherwise
abuse the power cord.
