This product is for household use only.

POLARIZED PLUG (FOR US MODELS ONLY)

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.

GROUNDED PLUG (FOR CANADIAN MODELS ONLY)

As a safety feature, this product is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit 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 qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

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)Longer 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 cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and

2)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.

3)If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

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.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
