providing an escal)e wire ti)r the electlJc cm:rent.
This al)l)liance is e(tuil)l)ed with a power cord having a g_:oun(ting
wire with a g_'(mn(ting plug. The plug must tie 1)lugged into ml

I/the outlet is a smndm:d 2-1)tong wall outlet, it is your personal
responsibility and obligation to ha_e it replaced with a properly
grom_ded 3-prong wall outlet.
Do not m_der any circmnstances cut or relno_e the third (g_:om_d)
prong ti'om the power cord.
_,i' do not recommend using an extension cord wi[h this apl)liance.
If the power (ord is too short, have _ qu_flitied ele(tridan or ser_ke
