reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.

the appliance from the power supply before servicing.

rugs, runners, or similar coverings. DO NOT route cord under furniture
or appliances. Keep cord away from high traffic areas and place cord

its service agent, or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
