SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
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 grounded
plug that looks like the plug illustrated in
Figure A. A temporary adapter that looks
like the adapter illustrated in Fig. B may
be used to connect this plug to a 1-pole
receptacle as shown in Fig. B if a
properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet
(Fig. A) can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored rigid ear,
lug, or the like extending from the
adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover. Whenever
the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw.
Note: In Canada, the use of a
temporary adapter is not permitted
by the Canadian Electrical Code.
