GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug
must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor

can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet 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.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a
grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated at right.
Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
