GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

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 cord 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.
WARNING – 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.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-V circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in sketch A. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
