IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
WARNING:
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.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply
cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in
their use. If a longer detachable power-supply extension cord is used:
1)
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:
2)
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.
If the appliance is grounded, the extension cord should be a 3-wire
grounding-type cord
.
LINE CORD SAFETY TIPS
1.
Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.
2.
To insert plug, grasp it firmly and guide it into outlet.
3.
To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4.
Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks. If
any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced and the
line cord replaced. Please return it to an authorized service
representative.
5.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place
undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to fray
and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR
IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
IMPORTANT
During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight
odor. This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will not recur after
appliance has been used a few more times.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
