This appliance must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or break down, ground-
ing provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock.
This appliance is equipped with a cord hav-
ing an equipment grounding conductor and
ground plug.
The plug must be inserted into an appropri-
ate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.

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-
volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in Fig.A.
A temporary adapter that looks like the
adapter illustrated in Fig.B, may be used to
connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle
as shown in Fig.B, if a properly grounded
outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig.A)
is installed by a qualified electrican.
The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like
extending from the adapter must be con-
nected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be
held in place by a metal screw.
