7. The use of attachments not recommended
or sold by the appliance manufacturer may
cause fire, electric shock or injury.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table

surfaces, including the stove.
10. Disconnect when changing blades or
cleaning.
11. Blades are sharp. Handle carefully.
Unplug before handling blades. Always
handle blades with hand away from cut-
ting edge. (See illustration in "How to
Assemble and Use.") Always store blades
with cutting edge away from you.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized
plug. This type of plug has one blade wider
than the other. The plug will fit into an
electrical outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature intended to help reduce the
risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to
insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing
the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug by
modifying the plug in any way.
