SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
-
A short power cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in 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 an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is provided with 3- wire, grounding type
cord, the extension should be a GROUNDING TYPE 3 - WIRE CORD. 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.
-
Your product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the
plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
