1. GROUNDING 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 grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded.
2. Position the electrical outlet within the space covered by the
decorative flue and where it will not interfere with the round duct.
Make sure the outlet does not interfere with the mounting bracket
fastening area, ductwork, or where the decorative flue touches
the wall.
