GROUNDING

Preferred Method

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with

DWKUHHSURQJJURXQGLQJSOXJZKLFKPDWHVZLWKD

standard three-prong grounding wall receptacle to

minimize the possibility of electric shock hazard from

this appliance.

The customer should have the wall receptacle and

circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure

the receptacle is properly grounded.

Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is

encountered, it is the personal responsibility and

obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a

properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR

REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM

THE POWER CORD.

receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection

of the power cord.

Temporary Method

Align large prongs/slots

CAUTION

Attaching the adapter ground

terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does

not ground the appliance unless the cover screw

is metal, not insulated, and the wall receptacle is

grounded through the house wiring. The customer

should have the circuit checked by a qualified

electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly

grounded.
