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 equipment-grounding 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.
WARNING: Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding 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.
