INSTALLATION TO THE MAINS

HAZARDS
Danger of electric shock.

 Touching some of the internal 

components can cause serious personal injury or death. 

Do not disassemble this appliance.

WARNING
Danger of electric shock.

 Improper use of the grounding 

can result in electric shock.
Do not plug into an outlet until the appliance is properly 

installed and grounded.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an 

electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of 

electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric 

current. This appliance is equipped with a cord which 

has a grounding wire with a  grounding plug. The plug 

must be connected to an outlet that is grounded.

Consult a qualified electrician or serviceman if the 

grounding instructions are not completely understood 

or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is 

properly grounded.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the 

risks resulting from becoming entangled or tripping over 

a longer cord.
If a longer cord or an extension cord is used, it must 

have the following characteristics:
- The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension 

cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of 

the appliance.
- The extension cord must be a type 3-wire cord.
- The long cord should be arranged so that it will not 

drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be 

pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
