SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

This product is for household use only.

GROUNDED PLUG

As a safety feature, this product is equipped

with a grounded plug, which will only t into a

three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat

this safety feature. Improper connection of the

grounding conductor may result in the risk of

electric shock. Consult a qualied electrician

if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is

properly grounded.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a

tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of

the outer cover. To reduce the risk of re or

electric shock, do not attempt to remove the

outer cover. There are no user-serviceable

parts inside. Repair should be done only by

authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a) A short power-supply cord is provided to

reduce the risks resulting from becoming

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

b) Extension cords are available and may be

used if care is exercised in their use.

c) If an extension cord is used:

1) The marked electrical rating of the 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 grounding-type

3-wire cord; and

3) The cord should be arranged so that it will

not drape over the counter top or tabletop

where it can be pulled on by children or
