SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
SPECIAL
CORD
SET
INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord
is
provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled
in
or tripping over a lon-
ger cord. Longer extension cords are available and may be
used if care
is
exercised
in
their use.
If a long extension cord
is
used, the marked electrical rat-
ing of the extension cord should be at least as great
as
the
electrical rating of the appliance, and the longer 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.
NOTICE: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one
blade
is
wider than the other).
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.
