conductor and a grounding plug. It must only be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all
codes and ordinances.

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

configuration as the plug. No plug adapter
should be used with
