Grounding Instructions

This disposer must be grounded to reduce the risk of electric shock in the event of a

malfunction or breakdown.  Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric

current. This disposer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an 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 serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
disposer is properly grounded.  If the plug provided with the disposer does not fit the
outlet, do not modify it.

See insert for specific information about your new disposer
