SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power supply cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power cord or extension cord is used (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top 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. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded type 3 wire cord. 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 plug only one way. If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
