16 INSTALLATION
WARNING
• Connect this appliance 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 damage or cut off the ground prong of
the power cord. Doing so may cause death, fire,
electric shock, or product malfunction.
• 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. If
the plug does not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• The appliance and outlet must be positioned so
that the plug is easily accessible.
• Do not use an adapter or extension cord. Doing
so may result in serious injury, fire, electric
shock, or death.
• For best performance, plug the appliance into its
own individual outlet. This helps prevent
overloading house wiring circuits which could
cause a fire hazard from overheated wires.
• If necessary, use a new, UL-listed extension cord
with a 3-prong (grounding) plug rated at no less
than the branch circuit. Do not use an extension
cord longer than 3 feet. Failure to follow these
warnings may result in serious injury, fire,
electric shock, or death.
