Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it

grounding provides a path of least resis-
tance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-ground-
ing conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electrocution. Check with a qualified
electrician or service personnel if you
are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the product - if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet in-
stalled by a qualified electrician. Do not
use any type of adapter with this prod-
uct.
