POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance is equipped with 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 feature or
modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels
warm, not use that outlet.
NOTE: This product features a special “quick release” magnetic detachable cord. For increased
safety and injury prevention, the cord is designed to detach from the heating element when
accidently tripped over or pulled on.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: A short detachable power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.:
Longer detachable power-supply cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in
their use.
