GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord with a grounding wire and
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded. Consult a qualified electrician
or serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded. If it is necessary to
use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-pronged
grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the appliance.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to
reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord.
2. Longer cord sets or an extension cord
should not be used unless the following
precautions are followed (see 3, below).
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the cord
set or extension cord should match the
rating of the appliance.
• The extension cord must be a grounding-
type 3-wire cord.
• The longer cord should be arranged so
that it will not drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over.
