OPERATION
Built in Electrical Safety
For your safety and protection this appliance is manufactured
with a grounded plug on its power cord. The power cord must
be plugged into a properly grounded receptacle. If a grounded
receptacle does not exist, have one installed by a certified elec-
trician. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong on the power
cord plug if equipped. We recommend that this electrical cir-
cuit/receptacle operate under a separate breaker or fuse.
