POLARIZED PLUG

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. If the plug fits loosely into
the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
An extension cord may be used when care is exercised in its use. When
an extension cord is used the marked electrical rating of the electrical
cord shall be the same or more than the rating of the sealer. The
extension cord shall be arranged so that it does not drape over the
counter top where it is capable of being tripped over, snagged, or pulled
on unintentionally, especially by children.
Always use Food Sealer on a level, flat surface.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts
