For your personal safety, this range must be grounded. This range is equipped with a
3-prong ground plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged
into a mating 3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded in accordance with the National
Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 latest edition and local codes and ordinances. If a mat-
ing outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have a properly polarized and grounded, 3-prong outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
