in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet 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. This appliance is
for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in sketch A. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the
same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
