GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

=For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher: The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event

of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appro- priate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances,

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock, Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded, Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician, For a permanently connected dishwasher: The dishwasher must be connected to a

grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the

equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher,
