NOTICE
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in 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.

proud to display on your kitchen counter. This very
contemporary Cuisinart

of sturdy stainless steel, with smooth lines and an
extra-wide base. Good looking, and almost impossible
