IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

The Elite Brand takes consumer safety very seriously. Products are designed and manufactured with our valued consumers’ safety in mind. Additionally, we ask that you exercise a level of caution when using any electrical appliance by following all instructions and important safeguards.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.

WARNING: When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed as below:

1. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
2. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse the cord, plug, or switch itself in water or any other liquids.
3. Wash all removable accessories before using them for the first time.
4. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used by or near children. It is not recommended for children to operate this appliance.
5. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the appliance to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric stove, or in a heated oven.
11. To disconnect, turn the switch to the OFF position, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
12. Do not use the appliance for other than its intended use.
13. A fire may occur if the appliance is covered or touching flammable material including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like when in operation.
14. Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, causing a risk of electrical shock.
15. Do not store any materials other than the manufacturer’s recommended accessories on this unit when not in use.
16. Do not place any of the following materials on the unit: Paper, cardboard, plastic, and the like.
17. 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.
18. Do not use a glass cover if chipped, cracked, or has been scratched as weakened glass can shatter during use. Discard immediately.

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

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 are available and 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.
