Grounding Instructions

Warning
Danger of death!
Improper connection of the ground may
result in electric shock. Have the
appliance checked by a qualified
technician or licensed electrician if you
are in doubt as to whether the washing
machine has been properly grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the
event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric
shock by providing a path of least
resistance for the electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord that
has 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 local codes and
ordinances. To ground the appliance
use a 3 pin plug and properly grounded
socket of 16 A rating.
Notes
■
Do not modify the plug provided with
the appliance. If the plug will not fit
into outlet have a properly grounded
outlet installed by qualified
electrician. Do not cut, remove or
bypass the grounding prong on the
washing machine power cord plug.

The wiring for the eletrical outlet
circuit must be sufficient to meet the
appliance requirements. Use of
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
