GROUNDING
INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a
grounded wiring system. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a
safe path of least resistance for electrical cur-
rent, reducing the risk of electrical shock. The
cord for this appliance has an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug.
It must only be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electrical shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you aren't sure
if the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT
MODIFY THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. This appliance is designed for
use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a
grounding attachment plug that looks like the
plug in the drawing above. Make certain that
the appliance is connected to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. No plug
adapter should be used with this appliance.
This model is for household use only.
