- If you use the
grouning plug improperly, you risk electric shock.
Ask a qualified electrician if you do not understand the
grounding instructions or if you wonder whether the

Because this appliance fits under the cabinet, it has a
short power-supply cord. See the separate Installation
Instructions for directions on properly placing the cord.
Keep the electrical power cord dry and do not pinch or
crush it in any way.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a
3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug
on the appliance. The marked rating of the extension
cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the appliance.
For a permanently connected appliance:
This appliance must be connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment
grounding conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment grounding
terminal or lead on the appliance.
