vent injury and machine damage. Consult a
qualified electrician if in doubt.
Be certain your appliance is properly in-
stalled and grounded by a qualified
technician.
To guarantee the electrical safety of this ap-
pliance, continuity must exist between the
appliance and an effective grounding sys-
tem. It is imperative that this basic safety re-
quirement be met. If there is any doubt, have
the electrical system of the house checked
by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer
cannot be held responsible for damages
caused by the lack, or inadequacy of, an ef-
fective grounding system.
The appliance is only completely isola-
ted from the electrical supply when the
fuse is withdrawn, the circuit breaker has
been tripped, or the unit has been unplug-
ged.
