Grounding Instructions

WARNING: Risk of electric shock, ﬁre, or personal injury.

This product must be grounded and connected only to a

dedicated, nominal 120 VAC, 60 Hz circuit protected by a

minimum 15 A Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or

Residual Current Device (RCD).

This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical

short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by

providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is

equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly

installed and grounded.

DANGER: Risk of electric shock. Improper use of the

grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not

connect the grounding wire to either ﬂat blade terminal. The wire

with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or

without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.

Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or service personnel if the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in

doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.

Do not use an extension cord with this product.
