ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician.
WARNING: Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug does not
fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Double insulated appliances are constructed throughout with two separate
layers of electrical insulation or one single layer of reinforced insulation
between the user and the appliance’s electrical system. Products built with this
insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, this appliance is
equipped with a two-prong plug which permits it to be used without concern for
maintaining ground connection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of the normal safety
precautions when operating this appliance. The secondary insulation
system is for protection against injury resulting from a possible failure of
the primary insulation within the product.
CAUTION: When servicing use only identical replacement parts. Repair or
replace damaged cords.

NOTE: Neither BLACK+DECKER nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage to
the product or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the electrical
connection procedures.
