GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING-
improper use of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
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 power cord
which contains a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or service
technician if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your
personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If
the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or service technician install an outlet near
the appliance.
For best operation, plug the appliance into its own
electrical outlet on a dedicated circuit to prevent
flickering of lights, blowing of fuse, or tripping of circuit
breaker.
