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 cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug
(A). The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet
(B) 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 the 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.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and
has a grounding plug that looks like the plug (A)
illustrated in Fig. 1.
A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug
to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is
not available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be
used only until a properly grounded outlet (B) can be
installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The rigid ear,
lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground (G) such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter
is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. NOTE:
