POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug — one blade is wider than the
other. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
outlet, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the plug in
any way.
ELECTRICAL CORD
The cord of this appliance was selected to reduce the possibility of
tangling in or tripping over a longer cord. If more length is needed,
use an Underwriters Laboratories (UL)-Listed extension cord rated
no less than 15-amperes and 120 volts. When using an extension
cord, do not let it drape over the working area or dangle where
someone could accidentally trip over it. Handle cord carefully for
longer life; avoid jerking or straining it at outlet and appliance
connections.
