before plugging in
Make sure your electricity supply is the same as the one shown on the underside of the appliance.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

  • A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) should be used to reduce risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord 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; and 2) The 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. The electrical rating of the appliance is listed on the bottom of the unit.
  • This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) To reduce the risk of electrical shock this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in 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.
