This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. This
appliance is equipped with a cord that has an equipment grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can
result in electric shock. Connect to an individual branch circuit. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the washer is properly grounded.
DO NOT modify the plug provided with the appliance if it will not fit
the outlet. Please have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Do not use any socket with rated current less than that of the
washing machine. Never pull out a power plug with a wet hand.
To ensure your safety, the power cord plug must be inserted into an
grounded three-pole socket. Check carefully and make sure that your
socket is properly and reliably grounded.
This washing machine should only be repaired and serviced by
qualified technicians.
If connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time-delay fuses
with this appliance.
