OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one
wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or using an adapter. If the
plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an
electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a
longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The
electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than
the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension
cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
