Cuisinart CPT-140PK Instruction Manual - Page 2

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS When using an electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1. Read all instructions. 2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. 3. To protect against electrical shock, do not place any part of the toaster in water or other liquid. See instructions for cleaning. 4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. 5. Always unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before cleaning or handling. 6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged in any way, or if it is not operating properly. Return the toaster to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination, repair, mechanical or electrical adjustment. 7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Cuisinart may cause injury. 8. Do not use outdoors. 9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or countertop or touch hot surfaces. 10. Do not place toaster on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven. 11. Do not use this toaster for other than intended use. 12. Oversize foods, metal foil packages or utensils must not be inserted in the toaster, as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock. 13. A fire may occur if the toaster is covered with or touching flammable materials, such as curtains, draperies or walls, when in operation. Do not operate under wall cabinets. 14. Do not attempt to dislodge food when the toaster is plugged into electrical outlet. 15. To avoid possibility of fire, do not leave toaster unattended during use. Unplug when not in use. 16. To disconnect, push the cancel button, then remove plug from wall. FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and 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. NOTICE This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, 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 defeat this safety feature.
