[GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS]
A. For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
This appliance must be 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.
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.
B. For a permanently connected appliance:
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or an equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on
the appliance.
WARNING!
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
