Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
w WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is provided
with either a polarized (one wide blade) or grounded (3-prong) plug
to reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug ts only one way into a
polarized or grounded 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 t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
t, 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. If the appliance is provided with a
grounded cord, the extension cord must also be a grounding 3-wire
cord. 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.
Do not use this unit near an oven, heater, or replace.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high-wattage
appliance on the same circuit with this appliance.
If using an extension cord, it should be connected to the unit’s power
cord before it is plugged into the outlet. In the case of a power failure,
the same procedure should be followed.
