ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS  
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE OR IF  
APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.  
EXTENSION CORDS  
A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming  
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or  
extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer  
detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,  
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as  
great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and  
2) The extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and  
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop  
or tabletop where it can be tripped over, snagged, or pulled on unintentionally  
(especially by children).  
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
This appliance must be grounded while in use.  
CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to  
properly ground outlets only.  
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS – US ONLY  
The appliance has a plug that looks like Figure A. An adaptor, as shown in Figure B, should  
be used for connecting a 3-prong grounding plug to a 2-wire receptacle. The grounding  
tab, which extends from the adaptor, must be connected to a permanent ground such  
as a properly grounded receptacle as shown in Figure C, using a metal screw.
