SPECIAL NOTES ON THE CORD PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of
electric shock, the plug can fit into a polarized socket 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
modify the plug in any way.
NOTES ON THE CORD
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazard resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a long cord.
2. Extension cords may be used if care is exercised. If it is necessary to use an extension
cord, it should be positioned so that it does not drape over the counter or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
3. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be the same or higher than the wattage
of the appliance (the wattage is shown on the rating label located on the underside or
back of the appliance).
4. Avoid pulling or straining the power cord at outlet or appliance connections.
