This appliance must be grounded. If
it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electrical current to
reduce the risk of electric shock.
This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-ground-
ing conductor (C) and grounding
plug (A). The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet (B) that is
properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

DANGER-
Improper connection of the equip-
ment-grounding conductor can
result in the risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or
service person if you are in doubt as
to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance - if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper out-
let installed by a qualified electri-
cian. This appliance is for use on a
nominal 120 volt circuit and has a
grounding plug that looks like the
plug (A) illustrated in sketch (Fig. 1).

A temporary adapter (D) may be
used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle (E) if a properly ground-
ed outlet is not available (Fig. 2).
The temporary adapter should be
used only until a properly grounded
outlet (B) can be installed by a qual-
ified electrician (Fig. 1). The green
colored rigid ear, lug, or the like (F)
extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground
(G) such as a properly grounded
outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever
the adapter is used, it must be held
in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In
Canada, the use of a temporary
adapter is not permitted by the
Canadian Electrical Code.
