Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use.
w
WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided
with either a polarized (one wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug
to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a
polarized or grounded outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a
longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used.
The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater
than the rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounding
type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type, 3-wire cord.
Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or accidentally tripped over.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-
wattage appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.
If using an extension cord, it should be connected to the unit’s power
cord before it is plugged into the outlet. In the case of a power failure,
the same procedure should be followed.
