This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least

resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a code having

an equipment–grounding conductor and 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.

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 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.

in sketch A. A temporary adaptor looks like adaptor illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used it connect this

plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary

such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal
