SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A. We do not recommend using an extension cord with this
device.
B. If an extension cord is absolutely necessary,
1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should
be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
machine,
2) 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.
C. This machine 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.
In the interest of improving products, Krups reserves the right to
change specifications without prior notice.
