IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS.
When using electrical appliances, always follow basic safety precautions to reduce the
risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury, including the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
This product is for household use only.
POLARIZED PLUG
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.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
Warning:
This appliance is equipped with a tamper-
resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by
authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
1) A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord.
2) Extension cords are available and may be used if care
is exercised in their use.
3) If an extension cord is used,
a) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance,
b) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension
cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
c) The 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.
Note:
If the power cord is damaged, please call our
Customer Service line listed in these instructions.
