Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can
result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
A 120-volt, 60-Hz., AC-only, 15- or 20-am-
pere, fused electrical supply is required.
A time-delay fuse, or circuit breaker, is
recommended. It is recommended that a
separate circuit serving only this appliance
be provided.
This washer is equipped with a power supply
cord having a 3 prong grounding plug.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord
must be plugged into a mating, 3 prong,
grounding-type outlet, grounded in accor-
dance with local codes and ordinances. If a
mating outlet is not available, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the customer
to have the properly grounded outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
If codes permit and a separate ground wire
is used, it is recommended that a qualified
electrician determine that the ground path
is adequate. •

For a grounded, cord-connected washer:
This washer must be grounded. In the event
of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing
a path of least resistance for electric current.
This washer 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 quali-
fied electrician or serviceman if you are in
doubt as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the ap-
pliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
For a permanently connected washer:
This washer must be connected to a grounded
metal, permanent wiring system, or an equip-
ment-grounding conductor must be run with
the circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the
appliance.
