GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be properly grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of least A
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equip-
ment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug
must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-ground-
ing conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with

a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as

This appliance is for use in a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has
a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A.
A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in C
sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is
not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The rigid lug (usually green) extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground,
such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the
adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
