INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 17 ENGLISH CONNECT TO THE POWER SUPPLY The washer should be plugged into a 120-VAC, 60Hz grounded 3-prong outlet. Plug in the washer. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service technician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it does not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Failure to follow these warnings can cause serious injury, fire, electrical shock, or death. WARNING • The power outlet must be within 60 inches (1.5 m) of either side of the washer. • The appliance and outlet must be positioned so that the plug is easily accessible. • Do not overload the outlet with more than one appliance. • The outlet must be grounded in accordance with current wiring codes and regulations. • Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. • It is the personal responsibility and obligation of the product owner to have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. • Do not use a worn or damaged power cord or power plug. Replace or repair it immediately. Failure to do so may result in death, fire, electric shock, or malfunction. • Do not modify the power cord and take care not to damage it when installing or moving the washing machine. Failure to do so may result in death, fire, electric shock, or malfunction. • Make sure that the washing machine is grounded. • Connect this washing machine to a grounded outlet conforming to the rating prior to use. Failure to do so may result in fire, electric shock, or malfunction. • Do not use adaptors or extension cords.
