Breakaway Cord and Polarized Plug

This appliance features a breakaway cord and  
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). 
The breakaway cord is designed to 
quickly disconnect from the appliance 
when a pulling force is applied. NOTE: 
The breakaway cord can fit into the 
appliance in only one direction. Please 
refer to printing on the cord connector 
that states “this side up.” To reduce the 
risk of electric shock, the cord is fitted 
with a polarized plug. This plug is 
intended to fit into a polarized outlet 
only. If the plug does not fit 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 manner.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to  
reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming 
entangled in or tripping over a long cord.

EXTENSION CORD USE

An extension cord or longer detachable cord is not  
recommended for use with deep-fat fryers.

ELECTRIC POWER

If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, 
your appliance may not operate. It should be operated on  
an electrical circuit that is free from other appliances. If you 
are not sure of the reason for overloading or cannot find a 
separate circuit, contact a qualified electrician.

This appliance is for 120 volts only and should not be used 
with a converter.
