WARNING
polarized plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) As a safety feature, this plug fits
in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug and try again.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
SHorT Cord
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled or snagged. Extension
cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electri-
cal rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The
extension cord should be arranged so that it will not hang over the countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or pets, or tripped over.
