over a longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware
stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an
extension cord is required, special care and caution is necessary. Also,
the cord must be: (1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V ~ and
at least 10 A, 1250 W, and (2) the cord must be arranged so that it
will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over accidentally.

is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of
electrical shock, this plug is intended to 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. Do not attempt to
defeat this safety feature.
