Installation
WARNING: Ensure the power
cord is not installed so that it is
pinched or against a sharp edge
and ensure that the power cord is
stored or secured to avoid tripping
or snagging to reduce the risk
of re, electric shock or injury to
persons.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded.
If it should malfunction or break-
down, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This product is
equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an appropri-
ate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER: Improper connec-
tion of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a
qualied electrician or serviceman
if you are in doubt as to whether
the product is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided
with the product – if it will not t
the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
This product is for use on a
nominal 120-volt circuit and has
a grounding plug that looks like
the plug in Figure 1. Make sure
that the product is connected to
an outlet having the same con-
guration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this product.
CAUTION: Risk of Electric
Shock. This product has two
cords. Unplug both cords before
moving or servicing this furnishing.
!NOTE: A 15 Amp, 120 Volt cir-
cuit is required. A dedicated circuit
is preferred but not essential in
all cases. A dedicated circuit will
be required if, after installation,
the circuit breaker trips or fuse
blows on a regular basis when the
cassette is operating. Additional
appliances on the same circuit
may exceed the current rating of
the circuit breaker.

to be hard water. In the event your
tap water is hard, you may use soft-
ened water or distilled water with
1/8 tsp of salt (0.5 mL) added to the
water reservoir. (The addition of
additional salt should only be used
when you notice that the unit is not
producing mist as expected.)
