disconnect, turn control to “off”, then

 

remove plug from outlet.

18.

Be aware that certain foods, such as

 

applesauce, cranberries, pearl barley,

 

oatmeal and other cereals, split peas,

 

noodles, macaroni, rhubarb, or

 

spaghetti can foam, froth and sputter,

If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
