GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a grounded wiring system. If it should malfunc­tion or break down, grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical cur­rent, reducing the risk of electrical shock. The cord for this appliance has an equipment­grounding conductor and a grounding plug. It must only be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accor­dance with all local codes and ordinances.
Grounded
Outlets
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment­grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is designed for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug in the drawing above. Make certain that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this appliance.

If manufacturer’s tag is missing or not coded, check with your furniture dealer.
