IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

6
Models KHB1231 & KHB2351:
Volts: 120 V.A.C.
Hertz: 60 Hz
NOTE: Models KHB1231 & KHB2351 have
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug will t in an outlet only one
way. If the plug does not t in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not t,
contact a qualied electrician. Do not modify
the plug in any way.
A short power-supply cord is provided to
reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a long extension cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the
extension cord should be at least as great
as the electrical rating of the appliance.
• The cord should be arranged so it will
not drape over the counter top or
tabletop where it can be pulled by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
