EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS
Thisappliancemustbeearthed.Intheeventofanelectricalshortcircuit,earthingreducestheriskofelectric
shockbyprovidinganescapewirefortheelectriccurrent.Thisapplianceisequippedwithacordhavinga
earthingwirewithanearthingplug.Theplugmustbepluggedintoanoutletthatisproperlyinstalledand
earthed.
WARNING: Improper use of the earthing plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualied
electrician or serviceman if the earthing instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as
to whether the appliance is properly earthed. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire
extension cord that has a 3-blade earthing plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the
appliance. The marked rating of the extension cord should be equal to or greater than the electrical
rating of the appliance.
