IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT–PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED TO
AVOID SEVERE OR FATAL SHOCK.
This product requires a three-prong, properly grounded outlet for safe operation. If
not properly grounded, or if the outlet box does not meet the electrical requirements
noted (under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS), a qualified electrician should be
employed to correct any deficiencies.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug
which mates with a standard three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from this appliance.
You should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to
make sure that the receptacle is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is very important to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT, DEFORM, OR REMOVE ANY OF THE PRONGS FROM THE POWER CORD. DO
NOT USE WITH AN EXTENSION CORD.

installation to avoid severe or fatal shock injury.
