POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) As a safety feature, this plug fits in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug and try again. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

ELECTRICAL CORD

The cord of this appliance was selected to reduce the possibility of tangling in or tripping over a longer cord.
If more length is needed, use an extension cord rated no less than 15-amps. When using an extension cord,
do not let it drape over the working area or dangle where someone could accidentally trip over it. Handle cord
carefully for longer life; avoid jerking or straining it at outlet and appliance connections.
