INSTRUCTIONS

This product is for household use only.

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 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.

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 fire 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 to be provided to reduce the risk

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 extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape

over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by

children or tripped over.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by

qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
