Grounding Instructions

This appliance must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This appliance is
equipped with
equipment-grounding
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 equip-
ment grounding 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 shown. A
temporary adaptor that looks like the
adaptor shown may be used to connect
this plug to a 2-pole receptacle, as shown.
If a properly grounded outlet is not
available, the temporary adaptor should
be used only until a properly grounded
outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug
or the like extending from the adaptor must
be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be
held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary
adaptor is not permitted by the Canadian
Electrical Code.
