English Electrical Connections Gr ounding Instructions 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 having a grounding wire with a grounded plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded. Improper use of the plug can result in a risk of electric shock. Consult a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Wiring Requirements: The washer must be plugged into at least 15 AMP 115-120 VOLT, 60 HZ GROUNDED OUTLET. Note: Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong outlet. X Extension Cords: We do not recommend that you use an extension cord. Power Interruptions Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs. When power has been restored re-plug power cord to AC outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, clean washer before using it again. 22
