THIS APPLIANCE HAS A
POLARIZED PLUG.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install a proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
This model is for household use only.
