  • Page 2: Important Cord Information

    Important Cord Information This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is in- tended 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. A short power supply cord (or cord set) is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. extension cords may be used if care is properly exercised in their use.
