GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS.

This appliance must be connected to a grounded
wiring system. If it should malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a safe path of least
resistance for electrical current, 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
accordance 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.
