GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current.
WARNING -
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a quali-
fi ed electrician or service agent if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
For best operation, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet to prevent fl ickering of lights, blow-
ing of fuse or tripping of circuit breaker

another appliance in the same wall outlet. Do not splice the cord. Do not under any circumstances cut
or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Do not use and adapter plug with this appli-
ance.
