GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
This appliance must be grounded. If it should 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 (C) and grounding plug (A). The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet
(B) that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet 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 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug
that looks like the plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-
pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is not available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used
only until a properly grounded outlet (B) can be installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored rigid
ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground (G) such as a
properly grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal
screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code
