General Information
Grounding
NOTE: This appliance must be properly grounded, for
personal safety.
Power cord on this appliance is equipped with a three-
prong grounding plug. This matches standard three-
prong grounding wall receptacle to prevent possibility of
electric shock from this appliance.
Consumer should have wall receptacle and circuit
checked by qualified electrician to verify receptacle is
properly grounded.
It is the consumers responsibility to replace standard two-
prong wall receptacles with properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacles.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR
REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM
POWER CORD.
For 15 amp circuits only, do not use an adapter on 20
amp circuit. Where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY
CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two-
prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL listed adapter
(available at most hardware stores).
Larger slot on adapter must be aligned with larger slot in
the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity.
WARNING
!
Attaching adapter ground terminal to wall receptacle
cover screw does not ground appliance unless the
cover screw is metal and not insulated, and wall
receptacle is grounded through the house wiring.
Consumer should have circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to verify receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting power cord from adapter, always
hold adapter with one hand. If this is not done, adapter
ground terminal is very likely to break with repeated use.
Should this happen, DO NOT USE appliance until a
proper ground has been established.
