• When installing or moving the appliance, be careful not to pinch,
crush, or damage the power cord.
• Use new hose or hose-set supplied with the appliance. Reusing old

result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is

breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for electric current.

grounding conductor and a grounding power plug. The power plug
must be plugged into an appropriate socket outlet that is installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

the appliance into the cabinet opening.

appliance.
• This appliance is intended to be used in household and domestic
applications only and must not be used for commercial purposes.

conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or
lead to the appliance.
