IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock. Consult a qualified electrician 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 install an outlet
near the appliance.
WARNING
Before you plug in an electrical cord or turn on power
supply, make sure all controls are in the OFF position.
For appliances equipped with a cord and plug, do not
cut or remove the ground prong. It must be plugged into
a matching grounding type receptacle to avoid electrical
shock. If there is any doubt as to whether the wall
receptacle is properly grounded, the customer should
have it checked by a qualified electrician.
If required by the National Electrical Code (or Canadian
Electrical Code), this appliance must be installed on a
separate branch circuit.
