IMPORTANT GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

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 cord having a grounding wire
with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING- Improper use of grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock.
1. Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
2. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a
3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance.
The marked electrical rating of the extension cord shall be
equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance.
