2. Do not use this appliance for other
than its intended use.

3. Close supervision is necessary

Polarized plug

This appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully
into the outlet, reverse the plug and
reinsert. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not modify the
plug in any way.

WARNING

Short cord instructions: Your appliance is fitted with a short power supply

cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or property damage
resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with a longer cord. Do
not allow children to use or be near this appliance without close adult
supervision. If an 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.

Electrical power: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your
appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate
electric circuit from other appliances.
