GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of the least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug (A).
The plug must be inserted into an appropriate
outlet (B) that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

WARNING
: IMPROPER CONNECTION
OF THE EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR
CAN RESULT IN THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT
WHETHER THE OUTLET IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG
PROVIDED WITH THE APPLIANCE - IF IT WILL
NOT FIT THE OUTLET, HAVE A PROPER OUTLET
INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt
circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like
the plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary
adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug to
a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded
outlet is not available (Fig. 2). The temporary
adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet (B) can be installed by a
qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored
rigid ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the
adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground (G) such as a properly grounded outlet
box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used,
it must be held in place by a metal screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter
is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
