-E3-
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product.
Do not immerse base in water or other liquid.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION
CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED
ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE
ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE GRAVY BOAT . The extension cord
should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over.
NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or
odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and
will not recur after a few uses.
POLARIZED PLUG
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. If the plug fits loosely into
the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertop and table surfaces, such as
Corian
®
and other surfaces, are not designed to withstand the prolonged
heat generated by certain appliances. We recommend placing a hot pad
or trivet under your Rival
®
product to prevent possible damage to the
surface.
