For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to
minimize the risk of fire, explosion, or electric shock, or to prevent
property damage, injury to persons, or death.

installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
