CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not operate another high
wattage appliance on the same circuit with the sandwich toaster.
This appliance is equipped with a grounded-type 3-wire cord
(3-prong plug). This plug will only fit into an electrical outlet made
for a 3-prong plug. This is a safety feature. If the plug should fail to
fit, contact an electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not
attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the grounding pin, part of
the 3-prong plug.
This appliance has a short cord to reduce the hazards of becoming
entangled or tripping over a ionger cord. An extension cord may
be used if the electrical rating is equal to or greater than the rating
of the sandwich toaster. An extension cord rated at least 13
amperes may be used. Care must be taken to arrange the extension
cord so that it wiii not drape over the countertop or tabletop where
it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
Do not use this unit near an oven, heater, or fireplace.
If using an extension cord, it should be connected to the unit's
power cord before it is plugged into the outlet. In the case of a
power failure, the same procedure should be followed.
