personal property, and also poses a personal safety hazard.
-Installation must be performed according to the installation
instructions. Improper installation can cause water leakage,
electric shock, or fire.
-Use only the included accessories, parts, and specified
tools for the installation. Using non-standard parts can cause
water leakage, electric shock, fire, and injury or property
damage.
-Make sure that the outlet you are using is grounded and has
the appropriate voltage. The power cord is equipped with a
three-prong grounding plug to protect against shock. Voltage
information can be found on the side of the unit, behind the
