device (fuse) that should not be removed. Discard the product if the attachment
plug is damaged.
• To reduce the risks associated with hazardous voltage:
- This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
