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 and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING
Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified
electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded, and either:
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 shall be equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance.
NOTES:
1.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2.
Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if 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 accidentally.
