GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This Appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,

grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the

risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an

equipment-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.

conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician

or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly

grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit

the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This appliance is for use on a nominal

120-volt circuit, and has a grounded

plug that looks like the plug illustrated in

Figure A. A temporary adapter that looks

like the adapter illustrated in Fig. B may

be used to connect this plug to a 1-pole

receptacle as shown in Fig. B if a

properly grounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used

only until a properly grounded outlet

(Fig. A) can be installed by a qualified

electrician. The green colored rigid ear,

lug, or the like 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.

Note: In Canada, the use of a

temporary adapter is not permitted

by the Canadian Electrical Code.
