SAFETY INFORMATION
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions. It is recommended to have a qualified electrician or serviceman
install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use longer cord sets or an extension cord; extreme
care must be exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance.
b) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
c) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top
or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
NOTE:
Neither BLACK+DECKER nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to
the product or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical
connection procedures.
WARNING - RISK OF FIRE
It is important the plug fits tightly into the wall outlet. if the plug does not fit securely
and appears loose, it should not be used. Have a licensed electrician replace the
receptacle.
USE OF EXTENSION CORDS WITH ICE MAKER
Only use a grounded extension cord that is rated at least 15 amps and has a third-wire
ground. When a long extension cord is used to connect the ice maker, a voltage drop
occurs. The longer the cord, the greater the voltage drop. This results in less voltage
being supplied to the ice maker and increases the amount of current (amp) draw or
reduces performance. A heavier cord with a larger wire size will reduce the voltage
drop. Be sure to choose a cord that will supply enough voltage to operate the ice
maker. The table below indicates appropriate gauge for extension cords.

WARNING: Keep electrical cords in good condition. Do not use worn, bare, or
frayed cords because they can cause electrical shock.
WARNING: Operating equipment at low voltage can cause it to overheat. Using
an excessively long extension cord can cause the cord to overheat.
