If the plug does not fit 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.

Double insulated appliances are constrcuted througout with two separate layers
of electrical insulation or one single layer of reinforced insulation between the user and the appliance’s electrical system. Products built with this insulation system are not intended to be grounded. As a result, this appliance is equipped with a two-prong plug which permits it to be used without concern for maintaining a ground connection.
NOTE : Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this appliance. The secondary insulation system is for protection against injury resulting from a possible failure of the primary insulation within the product.
CAUTION : WHEN SERVICING USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
