This product is factory equipped with a power supply cord that has a three-pronged ground-

ed plug. It must be plugged into a mating grounding type receptacle in accordance with the

National Electrical Code and applicable local codes and ordinances. If the circuit does not

have a grounding type receptacle, it is the responsibility and obligation of the customer to

exchange the existing receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code and ap-

plicable local codes and ordinances. The third ground prong should not, under any circum-

stances, be cut or removed. Never use the cord, the plug or the appliance when they show

any sign of damage. Do not use your appliance with an extension cord unless it has been

checked and tested by a qualiﬁed electrician or electrical supplier. Improper connection of

the grounding plug can result in risk of ﬁre, electric shock and/or injury to persons associat-

ed with the appliance. Check with a qualiﬁed service representative if in doubt that the appli-

ance is properly grounded.

Ce produit arrive d’origine avec un cordon d’alimentation équipé d’une prise à trois ﬁches. Il

doit être branché dans une prise avec une ﬁche de mise à la terre en conformité avec le Code

national de l’électricité et les codes et règles locaux applicables. Si la prise murale n’a pas de

mise à la terre, il est de la responsabilité et l’obligation du client de changer la prise existante

pour la rendre conforme au Code national de l’électricité et aux codes et règles locaux

applicables. La ﬁche de mise à la terre ne doit pas, en aucune circonstance, être coupée ou

retirée. Si vous apercevez des signes de dommage, n’utilisez jamais le cordon d’alimentation,

la prise ou l’appareil. N’utilisez jamais l’appareil avec une rallonge sauf si elle a été vériﬁée

et testée par un électricien qualiﬁé ou un fournisseur de matériel électrique. Une ﬁche de

mise à la terre mal branchée peut entraîner un risque d’incendie, de choc électrique ou de

blessures aux personnes qui utilisent l’appareil. Si vous n’êtes pas certain que l’appareil est

correctement mis à la terre, consultez un préposé du service qualiﬁé.
