THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
Important Cord Information
• 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.
• A short power supply cord (or cord set) is provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may
be used if care is properly exercised in their use.
• If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical 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 drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
• Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.
