GE JE1840 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Customer Service Troubleshooting Tips Operating Instructions Safety Information

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 power cord having a grounding

wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an

outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if

doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal

responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly

grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground)

prong from the power cord.

We do not recommend using an extension cord with this appliance.

If the power cord is too short, have a qualified electrician or service

technician install an outlet near the appliance. (See

WARNING—

EXTENSION CORDS

section.)

For best operation, plug this appliance into its own electrical outlet

to prevent flickering of lights, blowing of fuse or tripping of circuit

breaker.
