IMPORTANT
(PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)

FOR THE USER'S PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS

APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED

The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a
three-prong (grounding) plug. Use this with a standard
three-slot (grounding) wall power outlet (FIG. 10) to

minimize the hazard of electric shock. The customer

should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by

a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is
properly grounded.

PREFERRED METHOD

Ensure proper ground

exists before use

FIG. 10

DO NOT CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND)
PRONG FROM THE POWER PLUG.

A. SITUATIONS WHEN THE APPLIANCE WILL BE

DISCONNECTED OCCASIONALLY:

Because of potential safety hazards, we strongly

discourage the use of an adapter plug. However, if you

wish to use an adapter, a TEMPORARY

CONNECTION may be made. Use UL-listed adapter,

available from most local hardware stores (FIG. 11).
The large slot In the adapter must be aligned with the

large slot in the receptacle to assure a proper polarity

connection.

CAUTION:

Attaching the adapter ground terminal to

the wall receptacle cover screw does not

ground the appliance unless the cover

screw is metal, and not insulated, and the

wall receptacle is grounded through the

house wiring. The customer should have

the circuit checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the receptacle is properly

grounded.

Disconnect the power cord from the adapter, using one
hand on each. Othen/vise, the adapter ground terminal
might break. DO NOT USE the appliance with a
broken adapter plug.

B. SITUATIONS WHEN THE APPLIANCE WILL BE

DISCONNECTED OFTEN.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations.
Unplugging the power cord frequently can lead to an

eventual breakage of the ground terminal. The wall

power outlet should be replaced by a three-slot
(grounding) outlet instead.
