before putting on or taking out parts and before cleaning.

or individuals with certain disabilities.

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug,
or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped
or damaged in any way, or if it is not operating properly. Return
appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination,
repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords may
be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
and the longer 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.

NOTICE: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). As a safety feature, this plug will 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.
