GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WIRING

This section refers to Figure 17 and 18.

Grounding Instructions – This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Danger – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This appliance is for use on a standard 120VAC, individual 20-amp branch circuit with a NEMA 5-20R receptacle for Broan models VX3000C & VX6000C. For Broan model VX12000C, a nominal 240VAC, individual 20-amp branch circuit with NEMA 6-20R receptacle is required. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug shown in either Figure 17 or 18 depending on the model. No adapter should be used with this appliance.
