Polarization instructions

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to ﬁt into a polarized outlet 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 attempt to modify the plug in any way.

Short Cord instructions

a) A short power cord (or detachable power cord) is to

be provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

b) Longer detachable power cords or extension cords

are available and may be used with care.

c) If a long detachable power cord or extension cord is

used,

1)The marked electrical rating of the cord 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 table-top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
