Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or electrical
shock.
If codes permit and a separate ground
wire is used, it is recommended that a
qualified electrician determine that
the ground path is adequate.
Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
Check with a qualified electrician if
you are not sure the washer is properly
grounded.
Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or
ground circuit.
A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15- or
20-ampere fused electrical supply is
required. (Time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker is recommended.) It is
recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this appliance be provided.
Recommended
ground method
For your personal safety, this appliance
must be grounded. This appliance is
equipped with a power supply cord
having 3-prong ground plug. To
minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating
3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded
in accordance with local codes and
ordinances. See Figure 1. If a mating
outlet is not available, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have a properly grounded
3-prong outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
WARNING – Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance 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.
