be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
WARNING-Improper use of grounding can
result in a risk of electric shock.
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 and either:
1. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use
only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the appliance. The marked
electrical rating of the extension cord shall be
equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance,
or
2. Do no use an extension cord. If the power
supply cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or serviceman install an outlet near the
