GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for

shock. This product is equipped with a cord

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.
DANGER - Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electrocution. Check with a
qualified electrician or service personnel if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electri-cian. Do not use any type of
adaptor with this product.
