electrician should be employed to correct any
deficiencies.

CAUTION: For personal
safety, remove house fuse or
open circuit breaker before

avoid severe or fatal shock
injury.

The power cord of this
appliance is equipped
with a three-prong
(grounding) plug which
mates with a standard

wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility
of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.

You should have the wall receptacle and circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to make sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it is very important to have it
replaced with a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle, installed by a qualified
electrician.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT,
DEFORM OR REMOVE ANY OF THE PRONGS
FROM THE POWER CORD. DO NOT USE WITH
