SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This model is for household use only. Commercial use of this unit voids the manufacturer's warranty.
AWARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or service person if you
aren't sure if the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT
MODIFY THE PLUG. If it will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This
appliance is designed for use on a nominal 120-volt
circuit, and has a grounding attachment plug that
looks like the plug in the illustration. Make certain
that the appliance is connected,to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. No plug adapter
should be used with this appliance.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a grounded
wiring system. If it should malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a safe path of least resistance for
electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical shock.
The cord for this appliance has an
equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. It must
only be plugged into an outlet
that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. ^ Grounding Pin
