SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR

FUTURE REFERENCE GROUNDED PLUG: As a safety feature, this appliance is equipped with a grounded plug, which will only fit into a three-prong outlet. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature. Improper connection of the grounding conductor may result in the risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED IF CARE IS EXERCISED IN THEIR USE: - Minimize the risk of overheating by using the shortest UL or ETL listed cord possible. - The marked electrical rating must be at least as great as that of the product. - Never use a single extension cord to operate more than one appliance.4 - If the product is of the grounding type, the extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. - Arrange the longer cord so that it will not drape over a countertop or tabletop where it can be tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally (especially by children). DO NOT alter the plug. DO NOT attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
