Grounding Instructions - GE JES1142SFC Owner's Manual

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
—Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current.
This appliance is equipped with a power cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service technician
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
ADAPTER PLUGS (NOT PERMITED IN CANADA)
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this appliance. If the power cord is too short,
have a qualified electrician or service technician
install an outlet near the appliance. (See
EXTENSION CORDS section.)
For best operation, plug this appliance into its
own electrical outlet to prevent flickering of lights,
blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker.
