OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: If the plug on this appliance does not fit in your outlet, do not modify the plug, and do not use an adaptor. Have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.

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. If a longer cord is necessary a grounded type 3-wire 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.

To avoid an electrical circuit overload, do not use another high wattage appliance on the same circuit with your percolator.

Warning: To reduce risk of electrical shock, burns and property damage, remove the detachable cord from percolator by pulling gently on plug body. Do not pull on cord.
