Power Cord Instructions
Please follow the instructions below to ensure the safe use of the power cord.
•This toaster has a power cord area that allows you to adjust the length of the cord so that it is the appropriate length for your situation. Try to position the toaster near the power source to reduce the hazards associated with power cords (such as becoming entangled or tripping over a long power cord).
•You may use an extension cord, if necessary, but be certain to follow these guidelines:
–The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least 120/127 volt, 60 Hz.
–The extension cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop, will not be within the reach of children and will not be tripped over.
•For toasters purchased in the U.S. and Canada: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into a polarized plug in only one way. If you cannot completely insert the power plug into the power outlet, reverse the direction of the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.
•Do not pull, twist or otherwise abuse the power cord.
