This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate
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.
Consult with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in
doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have
a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a
grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated at
right. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used
with this appliance.
1. If it is necessary to use an
extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug and a 3-slot
receptacle that will accept the plug
on the appliance. The marked
rating of the extension cord should
be equal to or greater than the
electrical rating of the appliance.
OR
2. Do not use an extension cord. If
the power cord is too short, have a
qualified electrician or serviceman
install an outlet near the appliance.
Please Note:
1. A short power supply cord is provided
to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
2. Extension cords may be used is care
is exercised in their use.
3. If a long cord or extension cord is used,
(1) the marked electrical rating of the
cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of
the appliance, (2) the extension cord
must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord,
and (3) the longer cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over
