The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle to minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle, installed by a qualified electrician.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
WARNING Can cause injury or death: DO NOT, under any circumstances,
cut, deform or remove any of the prongs from the power cord. Do not use with an extension cord. Failure to comply may cause fire.
