IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO CONNECT ELECTRICITY
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from
the power cord. For personal safety, this
appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is
equipped with a 3-prong (grounding)
plug which mates with a standard 3-prong
(grounding) wall outlet to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard from
this appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked
by a qualified electrician to make sure
the outlet is properly grounded.
Where a standard 2-prong wall outlet
is encountered, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded
3-prong wall outlet.
The appliance should always be plugged
into its own individual electrical outlet
which has a voltage rating that matches
the rating plate. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading
house wiring circuits which could cause
a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug an appliance by pulling on
the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power
cords that have become frayed or otherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows
cracks or abrasion damage along its length
or at either end.
When moving the appliance, be careful not
to roll over or damage the power cord.
