GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance 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 ground-
ing wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that
is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING - Improper use of the grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock.
Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman 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 that has a 3-blade grounded plug, and 3-slot recepta-
cle that will accept the plug on the appliance. The marked rating of the
extension cord shall be equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the
appliance.
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 grounding can result in electric shock. Do not plug into
an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.
1. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer cord sets or extension cords are available and may be used if care
is exercised in their use.
3. If a long cord 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 longer 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.
