Power Cable: The blender's power cable comes equipped with a

prong wall socket. This cable will vary for countries outside the
United States of America.
Adapters are available for two-prong outlets. Do not cut or
remove the third (earth) prong from the plug or power cable.
Consult your electrician if you are not sure if the wall socket is
earthed through the building's wiring. With a properly earthed
two-prong wall outlet, earth the machine by attaching the tab
on the adapter to the wall outlet cover by means of the screw in
the centre of the cover.
