POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS

Please follow the instructions below to ensure the safe use of the power cord.

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade that is wider than the other. This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

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, 10A.

The extension 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.

Do not pull, twist, or otherwise abuse the power cord.
