ADAPTER PLUGS
Usage situations where appiiance's power cord wiii be disconnected
infrequentiy.
(Adapter plugs not
permitted in Canada)
Align large
prongs/slots
Ensure proper
grounding and firm
connection before
use.
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongiy recommend against the
use of an adapter piug. However,
if you still elect to use an adapter,
where local codes permit,
a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may
be mode to a properly grounded
2-prong wall receptacle by the
use of a UL listed adapter which is available at most local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adopter must be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power
cord.
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.
You should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to moke sure
the receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the
adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is
very likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE
the appliance until a proper grounding has again been established.
Usage situations where appliance's power cord will be disconnected
frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because frequent
disconnection of the power cord places undue strain on the adopter
and leads to eventual failure of the adopter ground terminal. You should
hove the 2-prong wall receptacle replaced with a 3-prong (grounding)
receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance.
