GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of 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 a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.This appliance is for use on a
nominal 120 V circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in sketch A.
A temporary adaptor, which looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and
C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B
if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be
used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the
adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in
place by the metal screw.
