GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
■ Foragrounded,cord-connectedrangehood:
This range hood 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 range hood is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
WARNING: Improper grounding can result in a risk of electric
shock.
