Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.

w WARNING

Hazard: This appliance is provided with

a polarized plug (one wide blade) to
reduce the risk of electric shock. The
plug fits only one way into a polarized
outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the plug by modifying the plug in any
way or by using an adapter. If the plug
does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, have an
electrician replace the outlet.

The length of the cord used on this
appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in
or tripping over a longer cord. If a
longer cord is necessary, an approved
extension cord may be used. The
electrical rating of the extension cord
must be equal to or greater than the
rating of the appliance. Care must
be taken to arrange the extension
cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.

Electrical Shock

w CAUTION

To reduce the risk of personal injury,
always unplug mixer before inserting or
removing beaters.

Wattage/Peak Power Information

The marked rating of the hand mixer
is determined by Underwriters
Laboratories as the maximum stabilized
power consumption of the hand mixer
at high speed under a loaded condition.
Peak power is an average of the
maximum wattage a hand mixer may
consume during initial operation at high
speed.

Moving Parts Hazard.
