Other Consumer Safety Information

This appliance is intended for household use only.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer
cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may
be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the food chopper. Care must be taken
to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the coun-
tertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or acciden-
tally tripped over.
