SPECIAL CORD SET  
INSTRUCTIONS  
A short power supply cord is  
provided to reduce the risks of  
becoming entangled in or tripping  
over a longer cord. Longer  
extension cords are available and  
may be used if care is exercised.  
If a long extension cord is used,  
the marked electrical rating of the  
extension cord should be at least  
as great as the electrical rating of  
the appliance. 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.  
NOTICE  
This appliance has a polarized plug  
(one prong is wider than the other).  
As a safety feature, this plug will fit  
into 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 safety feature.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY  
Important: If the nonconforming  
product is to be serviced by someone  
other than Cuisinart’s Authorized  
Service Center, please remind the  
servicer to call our Consumer Service  
Center at 1-800-726-0190 to ensure  
that the problem is properly  
diagnosed, the product is serviced  
with the correct parts, and the product  
is still under warranty.  
California law provides that for  
In-Warranty Service, California  
residents have the option of returning  
a nonconforming product (A) to the  
store where it was purchased or (B)  
to another retail store which sells  
Cuisinart products of the same type.  
The retail store shall then, at its  
discretion, either repair the product,  
refer the consumer to an  
independent repair facility, replace  
the product, or refund the purchase  
price less the amount directly  
attributable to the consumer’s prior  
usage of the product. If the above  
two options do not result in the  
appropriate relief to the consumer,  
the consumer may then take the  
product to an independent repair  
facility if service or repair can be  
economically accomplished.  
Cuisinart and not the consumer will  
be responsible for the reasonable  
cost of such service, repair,  
replacement, or refund for  
nonconforming products under  
warranty.  
California residents may also,  
according to their preference, return  
nonconforming products directly to  
Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary,  
replacement, by calling our  
Consumer Service Center toll-free at  
1-800-726-0190.  
Cuisinart will be responsible for the
