1. For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
- This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. 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.
WARNING
- Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with
a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are 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.
2. For a permanently connected appliance:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
- This appliance 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 appliance.
3. For a double-insulated, cord-connected appliance:
SERVICING A DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCE
- In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No-grounding
means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance.
Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to those parts being replaced.
A double insulated appliance is marked with the words “DOUBLE INSULATION” Or “DOUBLE INSULATED”.
The double-insulation symbol (a square within a square) may also be marked on the appliance.
