Is this appliance intended for household use only? Yes.

What should you do to reduce the risk of electric shock? This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric 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 adapter. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

Why was the length of the cord selected? 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.

What should you do if a longer cord is necessary? 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 appliance. 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.
