Important Grounding Instructions



This appliance must be grounded. In the 
event of an electrical short circuit, 
grounding reduces the risk of electric 
shock by providing an escape wire for the 
electric current. This appliance is 
equipped with a cord having a grounding 
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must 
be plugged into an outlet that is properly 
installed and grounded. 

WARNING-Improper use of grounding can 
result in a risk of electric shock. 

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the 
grounding instructions are not completely 
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the 
appliance is properly grounded and either: 

1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use 
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade 
grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will 
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked 
electrical rating of the extension cord shall be 
equal to or greater than the rating of the 
appliance, or 
2. Do no use an extension cord. If the power 
supply cord is too short, have a qualified 
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the 
appliance.
