SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Please take care to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over a counter or tabletop and become a potential hazard.

TO FORCE THE PLUG INTO THE OUTLET OR MODIFY THE PLUG.
