GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

!Warning

The beverage/ice machine must be grounded in accordance with national and local electrical codes.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, 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 a 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.

NOTE: The 208/230V units are not equipped with a cord.

!Warning

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the appliance 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.

!Warning

When using electric appliances, basic precautions must always be followed, including the following:

a.Read all the instructions before using the appliance.

b.To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when an appliance is used near children.

c.Do not contact moving parts.

d.Only use attachments recommended or sold by the manufacturer.
