GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for elec-
tric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having equipment grounding conductor and
grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate out-
let that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the equipment 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 weather
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 sketch A below.
12
A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in
12 sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
– receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded receptacle
is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored 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.
