This appliance must be
grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, ground-
ing reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current.
This appliance is equipped
with a power cord having a
grounding wire with a ground-
ing plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and ground-
ed.
Consult a qualified electrician
or service technician if the
grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly ground-
ed.
If the outlet is a standard 2-
prong wall outlet, it is your per-
sonal responsibility and obliga-
tion to have it replaced with a
properly grounded 3-prong
wall outlet.
For best operation, plug this
appliance into its own electri-
cal outlet to prevent flickering
of lights, blowing of fuse or
tripping of circuit breaker.
Do not
under any circum-
stances cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
Do not
use an adapter plug
with this appliance.
Do not
use an extension
cord with this appliance. If the
power cord is too short, have
a qualified electrician or serv-
ice technician install an outlet
near the appliance.
