When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
• Read all instructions.
• To protect against risk of electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs or appliance
in water or other liquid.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Unplug from wall outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts and
before cleaning.
• Avoid contacting moving parts.
• Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
Contact Consumer Support at the toll-free number listed in the warranty
section. This appliance has important markings on the plug blade. The
attachment plug or entire cordset (if plug is molded onto cord) is not
suitable for replacement. If damaged, the appliance must be replaced.
• The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause
fire, electric shock or injury.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter.
POLARIZED PLUG (120V models only)
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 into a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the
outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by
