GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock causing serious injury,
even death.
• 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 having a grounding wire with a grounding plug
and must be connected into a properly grounded polarized outlet. Consult a qualified
electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded. If the wall outlet is a standard 2 prong 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 plug.
• 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 install an electrical outlet near the appliance.
