The maximum rating marked on the product is based on the attachment that draws
the greatest load. Other attachments may draw less power.
This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade 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 or
modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or
if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
