provides a safe path of least resistance for electrical
current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. The cord for
this appliance has an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. It must only be plugged into
an outlet that is properly 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 electrical shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service
person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is
properly grounded. DO NOT MODIFY THE
PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. This appliance is designed for
use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has
a grounding attachment plug that looks
