Electrical Shock Hazard
l Electrical ground is required on this
appliance.
l If cold water pipe is interrupted by
plastic, non-metallic gaskets or
other insulating materials, Do Not
use for grounding.
l Do Not ground to a gas pipe.
l Do Not modify the power supply
cord plug. If it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
l Use a new 30-ampere power supply
cord kit. Do Not reuse an old power
supply cord. Possible electrical
shock or fire hazard could occur if
old power supply cord is used.
l Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or
grounding circuit. A fuse in the
neutral or grounding circuit could
result in an electrical shock.
l Do Not use an extension cord with
this appliance.
. Check with a qualified electrician
as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
Failure to follow these instructions
could result in serious injury or death.
This appliance is manufactured
with a 30-ampere-rated, four-
wire, flexible-type power supply
cord with the green grounding wire
connected to the grounding connector.
