OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This product is intended for household
use only.
This product is only intended for the prepa-
ration, cooking, and serving of foods. This
product is not intended for use with any
non-food materials or products.
WARNING!
Shock Hazard: This product 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 becom-
ing 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 grounded 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.
CAUTION: Do not immerse fryer, cord, or
plugs in water or other liquid.
WARNING!
Burn Hazards.
• Serious hot-oil burns may result from a
deep-fat fryer being pulled off a counter-
top. Do not allow the cord to hang over
the edge of the counter where it may be
grabbed by children or become entangled
with the user. Do not use with an exten-
sion cord.
• Do not lean over the deep fryer when the
lid is off.
