ThIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR 
hOUSEhOlD USE ONly.
This appliance has a polarized alternating current plug (one blade is wider than the other). 
To reduce the risk of electric shock, as a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet 
only one way. If the plug does not insert fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still fails to 
fit, contact a qualified electrician.

ExTENSION CORD USE 
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled 
in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its 
use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must be at least as great as 
the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension 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.
