the plug into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.
WARNING - If you use the grounding plug
improperly, you risk electric shock.
Ask a qualified electrician if you do not understand the grounding instructions or if you wonder whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
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
dry and do not pinch or crush it in
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.
Ensure proper ground exists before use
