GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

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 cord that has a grounding wire
with a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded.

Where standard two-
prong wall receptacle
is encountered, it is
your personal
responsibility and
obligation to have it
replaced with a
properly grounded
three-prong wall
receptacle.

Do not under any
circumstance cut or
remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord. Do not use an adapter plug with
this appliance.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if
the grounding instructions are not completely
understood or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord. If the power
supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near
the appliance.

NOTE: If your electric power line or outlet
voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking times
may be longer. Have a qualified electrician
check your electrical system.
