Important Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING-Improper use of grounding can
result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded and either:
1. 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
electrical rating of the extension cord shall be
equal to or greater than the rating of the
appliance, or
2. Do no use an extension cord. If the power
supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the
appliance.
