GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be connected to a grounded

wiring system. If it should malfunction or break

down, grounding provides a safe path of least

resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of

electrical shock. The cord for this appliance has an

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. It must only be plugged into an 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 electrical

shock. Check with a qualified electrician or

service person if you aren’t sure if the

outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT MODIFY

THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have

a proper outlet installed by a qualified

electrician. This appliance is designed for

use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has

a grounding attachment plug that looks

like the plug in the drawing above. Make

certain that the appliance is connected to

an outlet having the same configuration as

the plug. No plug adapter should be used

with this appliance.
