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. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. If the power supply cord is too short, do not use an extension cord. Have a qualified
electrician or serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use longer cord sets or an extension cord, extreme
care must be exercised.
a) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord must equal to or
be greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
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.
