GROUNDED PLUG
As a safety feature, this product is equipped with a grounded plug, which
will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety
feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result
in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in
doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
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 to be provided to reduce the risk
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer 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 cord set or extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
b) 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 unintentionally.
The appliance is of the grounded type so the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord.
Note:
If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by
qualified personnel or in Latin America by an authorized service center.
