service personnel unless specifically recommended in this owner's manual. Use only authorized factory
parts.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with
a qualified electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt 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.

of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The 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 installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
