GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER

Electric Shock Hazard

•Touching some of the internal components can cause serious personal injury or death. Do not disassemble

this appliance.

WARNING

Electric Shock Hazard

•Improper use of the grounding plug can result in electric shock. Do not plug into an outlet until appliance is properly installed and grounded.

Properly polarized and grounded outlet

Three-pronged (grounding) plug

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. This appliance is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Where standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.

Do not under any circumstance cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.

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 that has a 3-pronged grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the appliance.

•A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

•Longer cord sets or extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

•If a long cord or extension cord is used: 1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. 2) The extension cord must be a grounding-type 3- wire cord, and 3) The longer 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.

NOTE: If your electric power line or outlet voltage is less than 110 volts, cooking times may be longer. Have a qualified electrician check your electrical system.
