ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

Voltage: 120 V~

Frequency: 60 Hz Wattage: KMT3115 900 W

KMT5115 1600 W

NOTE: Your Toaster has a 3 prong grounded plug. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug will fit in an outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit in the outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power supply cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or technician install an outlet near the appliance.

A short power supply cord (or detachable power supply cord) should be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
