15. A fire may occur if the appliance is covered or touching flammable material including curtains, draperies, walls and the like when in operation.
16. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electrical shock.
17. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of other material other than metal or glass.
18. Do not store any materials other than manufacturers recommended accessories in this unit when not in use.
19. Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: Paper, cardboard, plastic and the like.
20. Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian®, wood and/or laminates, are not designed to withstand prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. It is recommended by countertop manufacturers that a hot pad or trivet be placed under your appliance to prevent possible damage to the surface.

SHORT CORD PURPOSE

Note: A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord.
Longer power-supply cords or extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

If an extension cord is used: (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the product; (2) the extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can unintentionally be pulled on or tripped over by children or pets.

POLARIZED PLUG

If this appliance is equipped with a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other), please follow the below
instructions:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
this plug is intended to fit into a
polarized outlet only one way. If you
are unable to fit the plug into the
electrical outlet, try reversing the plug.

If the plug still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Never use the plug
with an extension cord unless the plug
can be fully inserted into the extension
cord. Do not alter the plug of the
product or any extension cord being
used with this product. Do not attempt
to defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
