WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically earth this appliance.

Do not use an extension cord or an electrical portable outlet device.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

■A 220 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 8- or 10-amp, fused electrical supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided.

■This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having an earthing plug.

■To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating, earthing-type outlet, earthed in accordance with local codes and ordinances. If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the properly earthed outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

■If codes permit and a separate earth wire is used, it is recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the earth path is adequate.
