GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of malfunction or break­
down, grounding will reduce the risk
of electric shock by providing a path of
least resistance for electric current. The
power supply cord must be plugged into
an appropriate 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 electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug on the power
supply cord. If it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
