Important safety instructions
Grounding instructions
A) Grounding instructions for a grounded,
cord-connected appliance
In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock
by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. This appliance (Canadian
market only) 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 or personnel if you are
in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with
the appliance (Canadian market only). If it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
To reduce the risk of fire, this appliance must
be exhausted outdoors or the equivalent. Do
not exhaust into a chimney, wall, ceiling or
concealed space in a building.
B) Grounding instructions for a
permanently connected appliance:
This appliance must be connected to a
grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or

with the circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the
