7 Connect To The Power Supply; 7 Test The Washer - LG WT901CW Owner's Manual

CONNECT TO THE POWER SUPPLY
The washer should be plugged into a 120-VAC, 60-
Hz grounded 3-prong outlet. Plug in the washer.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service technician
if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug pro-
vided with the appliance. If it does not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electri-
cian. Failure to follow these warnings can cause
serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death.
WARNING
The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5
•
m) of either side of the washer.
The appliance and outlet must be positioned so
•
that the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not overload the outlet with more than one
appliance.
The outlet must be grounded in accordance
•
with current wiring codes and regulations.
Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
•
recommended.
It is the personal responsibility and obligation
•
of the product owner to have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
• Do not use a worn or damaged power cord or
power plug. Replace or repair it immediately.
Failure to do so may result in death, fire, electric
shock, or malfunction.
• Do not modify the power cord and take care
not to damage it when installing or moving the
washing machine. Failure to do so may result in
death, fire, electric shock, or malfunction.
• Make sure that the washing machine is
grounded.
Connect this washing machine to a grounded
•
outlet conforming to the rating prior to use.
Failure to do so may result in fire, electric
shock, or malfunction.
• Do not use adaptors or extension cords. The
washing machine should always be plugged
into its own individual electrical outlet which has
a voltage rating that matches the rating plate.
Failure to do so may result in fire, electric shock
or disorder.
• Do not damage or cut off the ground prong of
the power cord. Doing so may cause death,
fire, electric shock, or product malfunction.
