Caution

Unit must be grounded. If it malfunctions or breaks down,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current
to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product’s cord features
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate three-prong outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Danger
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electri-
cian or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product
is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If plug
will not fit into an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and has a
three-prong grounding plug as shown in Figure A. A temporary
adapter, as shown in Figure B, may be used to connect this plug
to a two-prong receptacle if a properly grounded outlet is not

available. The temporary adapter should only be used until a
qualified electrician can install a properly grounded outlet (Figure
C). The green colored tab extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held
in place by a metal screw (Figures D & E).
Note: Temporary adapters, such as the type mentioned above,
cannot be used in Canada.
