appropriate outlet that is 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.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance
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.
