Polarized Plug

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 in
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 short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Do not use an extension cord with this product.

Electric Power

If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your
appliance may not operate. It should be operated on a separate
electrical circuit.

the counter top or table top or other furniture, place NON-PLASTIC
coasters or placemats between the appliance and the finish of the
counter top or table top.

Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken, permanent blemishes
may occur or stains can appear.
