Grounding Instructions (For Model F-16)

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of 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
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

A qualified electrician should be consulted if there is any doubt as to whether an outlet
box is properly grounded.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in
a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if 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.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 115V circuit (NEMA 5-15R), and has a grounding
plug (NEMA 5-15P) as illustrated below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
appliance.
