B. Longer cord set or extension cords are available and may be used if care is
exercised in their use.
C. If a longer cord set or extension cord is used,
(1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
(2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
\_ over unintentionally. |
