grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING:
Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord
that has a 3-blade grounded plug, and 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of the appliance.
DANGER:
Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death.
Do not disassemble this appliance. Improper use of the grounding can result in electric
shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.
If a long cord or extension cord is used:
The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter
top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
