reduce the hazards resulting of entanglement or tripping over
a long cord. An extension cord may be used with care, however,
the marked electrical rating should be at least as great as the
electrical rating of this appliance. The extension cord should

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this Portable Blender is
equipped with a polarized plug, in which one prong is wider
than the other. This plug is intended to t into a polarized outlet
only in one direction. If the plug does not t fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician.
Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
