conductor. Thermally protected, it will automacally shut down if overheated. The motor
will restart automacally once cooled, for as long as it is plugged into a power source.
In the event of a malfuncon or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This air mover is equipped with an 10 . 14 AWG electric power cord having an equipment
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Power Cords
ŸUse three-pronged adapters that are UL and CE approved and with Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (G.F.C.I.).
ŸDo not use cords that show any kind of wear or damage.
ŸCords are not covered by warranty
WARNING! The Total amperage of the BVP25D Air Mover plus all other
devices plugged into the receptacle must not exceed 12 amps.
Grounding Instrucons
