homes, and recreational vehicles, or in an area where
local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral
conductor.
For installations where grounding through the neutral
conductor is prohibited,
disconnect the link from the neutral,
a.
use grounding terminal or lead to ground unit,

connect neutral terminal to lead branch circuit neutral
c.
in usual manner (when the appliance is to be
connected by means of a cord kit, use a UL listed 4-
conductor cord for this purpose).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. Grounding reduces
the risk of electric shock by providing a safe pathway for
electric current in the event of a short circuit.
The appliance must be connected to a grounded,
metallic, permanent wiring system, or an equipment
grounding conductor should be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment grounding
terminal or lead on the appliance.
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.
