Shock Hazard

■ Do not immerse this appliance in water or other liquid.
■ This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that

reduces the risk of electrical shock. The plug fits only one way
into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
plug by modifying the plug in any way or using an adaptor. If
the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have
an electrician replace the outlet.
