before cleaning.

FOR PRODUCTS PURCHASED IN THE U.S. AND CANADA ONLY:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider

into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY FEATURE.
CAUTION – Never allow the power supply cord to be pulled, twisted, or severely bent.
Never wrap the cord tightly around the dryer. Damage will occur at the high flex point of
entry into the dryer, causing it to rupture, arc, and short. Inspect the cord frequently for
damage. Stop use immediately if damage is visible or unit stops or operates intermittently.
