This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than
the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit
in a polarized main socket only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the polarized main socket,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper polarized main socket. Do not
modify the plug in any way. (for USA, Canada only)
