INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CORD
.Connect the appliance only to a grounded electrical outlet.
. Check that the voltage of your appliance is the same as the vol-
tage supplied to your outlet. Any error in connecting the
appliance invalidates the warranty.
. The length of the cord was selected to reduce the chances of
accident.
. Extension cords may be used but with caution. If using an exten-
sion cord, its electrical capacity must equal or be greater than
that of the appliance. Ifthe appliance is a grounded model, the
extension must have three conductors, one of which is grounded.
The cord with its extension should be placed out of the reach of
children and in such a way that it cannot be tripped over.
. The appliance has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the
other). As a safety measure, this plug will fit into a polarized
outlet only one way. Ifthe plug does not fit into the outlet
properly, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact an
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
. Ifthe cord is damaged, do not use your appliance. In order to
