POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug,
(one blade is wider than the other). As
a safety feature to reduce the risk of
electrical shock, this plug is intended
to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature or modify the plug in any way. If
the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet
feels warm do not use that outlet.
