HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc­
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec­
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accor­
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illus­
trated in Drawing 2 may be used to connect this plug to
a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Dravwng 2 if a
properly grounded outlet Is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a prop­
erly grounded outlet (Drawing 1) can be installed by a
qualified electrician. TTie green colored rigid ear, lug, or
the like 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. Some 2-poIe recep­
tacle outlet box covers are not grounded. Contact a
qualified electrician to determine if the outlet box
cover is grounded before using an adapter.

ed) for the motivational fitness monitor to operate;
