*Please note that the first time you attach this cord it has to be forced on to expand the compression contacts. 

If you need to remove the cord from the appliance it will require some force to remove it. *Remember, each time you install and remove this type of cord you are reducing the life of the cord. (This action is what causes the cord to become loose and eventually no longer function.)(This is one of the most common reasons a consumer needs to purchase a new cord.)
