Warning
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of
this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard
three prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock. Do not
under any circumstances cut or remove the third ground prong from the power
cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~/60Hz electrical ground
outlet with three-prongs. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded. When a standard 2-prong
wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. The cord should be
secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling to prevent
accidental injury.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet
that has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This
provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring
circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly
and pull straight out from the receptacle.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or
otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to
damage the power cord.
