Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
A qualified electrician should be consulted if there is any doubt as to whether an outlet
box is properly grounded.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in
a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. When repair
or replacement of the cord or plug is required, do not connect the grounding wire to
either flat blade pin. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 115V circuit (NEMA 5-15R), and has a grounding
plug (NEMA 5-15P) as illustrated below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this
appliance.
