To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit with the waffle baker.
Model 26400: This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug.
This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will
fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If
you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact an electrician to
replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.

should fail to fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete out-
let. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounding
pin, part of the 3-prong plug.
