WARNING
Electric Shock Hazard
Improper use of the grounding can result in electric shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.
This appliance must 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.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension cord.

• A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
• If a long cord set or extension cord is used:
  – The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
  – The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
  – The long cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
