MOUNTING AND WIRING
Do not use on circuits exceeding specified volt-
age. Higher voltage will damage control and
could cause shock or fire hazard.
To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment
damage, disconnect electric power to system at

is complete.
Failure to earth ground the appliance or revers-
ing the neutral and hot wire connection to the line
