GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be grounded, in the event
of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance for electric current. The

dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into an appro­
priate outlet that is 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 representative if you are in
doubt whether the dishwasher is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with
the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher 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
dishwasher.
