an escape wire for
the electric current. This
appliance 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.
WARNING-lmproper
use of
the
grounding plug
can result in
a
risk
of electric shock.
Consult
a
qualified
electrician or service
person
if the
grounding
instructions
are not
completely understood,
or if
doubt exists as to whether
the appliance is
properly
grounded.

an extension cord,
use only
a
three
wire
extension cord
that
has
a three blade
grounding
plug,
and a
three slot
receptacle
that will

plug
on
the
appliance. The marked rating
of the exlension
cord should be
