To Reduce the Risk of Injury to Persons Grounding
Installation
DANGER
Electric Shock Hazard
Touching some of the internal components can cause serious
personal injury or death. Do not disassemble this appliance.
WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard
Improper use of the plug grounding can result in electric shock.
Do not plug into a power outlet until appliance is properly installed
and grounded.
This appliance plug 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.
Consult a qualied electrician or engineer if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord.
1. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord.

6
2. If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
3) The long cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by
children or tripped over unintentionally.
