SHORT CORD PURPOSE
NOTE: A short power cord is
provided to reduce the risk of
personal injury resulting from
becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
Longer power-supply cords or
extension cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in
their use.
If an extension cord is used:
(1)
the marked electrical rating of
the extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical
rating of the product; (2) the
extension cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop
where it can unintentionally be
pulled on or tripped over by
children or pets.
POLARIZED PLUG
If this appliance is equipped with
a
polarized plug
(one blade is
wider than the other), please
follow the below instructions:
To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to fit
into a polarized outlet only one
way.
If you are unable to fit the
plug into the electrical outlet, try
reversing the plug.
If the plug
still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician.
Never use
the plug with an extension cord
unless the plug can be fully
inserted into the extension cord.
Do not alter the plug of the
product or any extension cord
being used with this product.
Do
not attempt to defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
BEFORE FIRST USE
•
Carefully unpack the product
and remove all packaging
materials. Clean the toaster
thoroughly before using for
the first time. This serves to
remove any dust that may
have accumulated during
packaging. Do not use
abrasive cleansers when
cleaning. Do not immerse the
toaster or electrical cord in
water or any other liquid.
(See the
“
HOW TO CLEAN
”
section for further
instructions.)
•
During the first few uses you
may notice smoke and/or a
slight odor. This is normal and
should disappear with
subsequent use.
