This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-V circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in sketch A in Grounding methods. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as
the plug.
No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
WARNING – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a 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 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 and grounding plug.
The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
