CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of
plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an
electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to
help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert
the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should
still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug by modifying the plug in any way.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit with your food processor.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the food processor. Care must be taken
to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.
Before First Use:
Unpack processor. Handle the S-Blade and
Slicing/Shredding Disc carefully; they are very sharp. Wash all parts
except the base in hot, soapy water. Rinse then dry. These parts can
also be placed in the dishwasher.
