POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If
the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm
do not use that outlet.
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts
inside. Do not attempt to service this product. Do not immerse base in
water or other liquid.
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY
BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING
SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE
ROASTER OVEN. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over
the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
NOTE: Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian
®
and other
surfaces, are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated
by certain appliances. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet
under your Rival
®
product to prevent possible damage to the surface.
