Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break­down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug.

The plug must be plugged into an appropri­ate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This product is for use on a 120V circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug in the following figure. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration­ as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

DANGER: Improper connection­ of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
