SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household

The length of the cord used on this appli-
ance was selected to reduce the hazards of

approved extension cord may be used. The
electrical rating of the extension cord must
be equal to or greater than the rating of the

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.
