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 service person 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.
For a permanently connected appliance:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal
permanent wiring system. Alternatively, an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors
and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead
on the appliance.
