Recommended Earthing Method
EARTHING iNSTRUCTiONS
This washer must be earthed. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric
current. This washer is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and earthed in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-
earthing conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in
doubt as to whether the appliance is properly earthed.
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.
