GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In
the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance
for electric current. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding 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.
WARNING – Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or
service representative 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.
