Short Cord instructions

A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce
the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used
if care is exercised in their use.
If a long detachable power-supply 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;

2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding­type 3-wire cord; and

3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it does not drape over the countertop or
table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
