14. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This product is intended for household use.
NOTE
A. A short power-supply cord (or cord set) is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. B. Longer cord set or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. C. If a long cord set or extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. (2) if the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type three-wire cord, and (3) the longer 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 accidentally.
This appliance has a polarized plug: (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
