ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF THE
APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.
EXTENSION CORDS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used,
1) The extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
2) If an extension cord is absolutely necessary, an extension cord rated a minimum
of 13 ampere, 16 American wire gauge cord should be used. Cords rated for less
amperage may overheat.
3) An extension cord with the power cord must be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where they can be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded while in use.
CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to
properly grounded outlets only.
