REDUCING THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
1.
Electric Shock Hazard -
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious
personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance.
2.
Electrical Grounding -
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.
Electric Shock Hazard Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock. Do
not plug into an outlet until the appliance is properly installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood or if any doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly
grounded.
3.

This is in addition to the earth located on the provided 3 pin plug.
4.
Extension Cord -
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
If a long cord set 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 long 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 unintentionally.
