CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
If you are not familiar with electrical power and procedures, call a qualified electrician.
WARNING 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 appliance is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided with the appliance if it will not fit the outlet; have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
For Models Equipped with a Grounded Cord:
