IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
Read all instructions.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against fire, electric shock and injury to persons do not immerse cord,
plugs or appliance in water or other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from outlet when either the appliance or display clock is not in use, and
before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before
cleaning the appliance.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance
malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact Consumer Support at the
number listed in this manual.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer
may result in fire, electric shock or injury to persons.
Do not use outdoors.

This product is for household use only.
POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)
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 fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW
This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of
the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to
remove the outer cover. There are no userserviceable parts inside. Repair should
be done only by authorized service personnel.
ELECTRICAL CORD
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
3. If an 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;
2. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounding-type 3-wire cord; and
3. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
Note: If the power cord is damaged, please contact the warranty department listed in
these instructions.
