. Since your washer is equipped with a power supply cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug, the plug MUST be plugged into an appropriate, copper wired receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Codes, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition). If in doubt, call a licensed electrician. DONOT cut off or alter the grounding prong on the power supply cord. In situations where a two-slot receptacle is present, it is the owner's responsibility to have a licensed electrician replace it with a properly grounded three prong grounding type receptacle.
