Special Instructions

This appliance has a short supply cord to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer extension cord is used,

the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The 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 unintentionally.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fully fit into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

•Read all instructions, product labels and warnings before using your Food Steamer.
