CAUTION

If there is any question about

the grounding of your recep-

tacle, have it checked by a

qualified electrician. Do not

cut off the power cord ground-

ing prong, or alter the plug in any way.

If an extension cord is needed, use a

three-wire cord that is in good condi-

tion. The cord should have an adequate

power rating to do the job safely. It must

be plugged into a grounded receptacle.

Do not use a two-wire extension cord with

this product.

CAUTION

If you have a two-prong elec-

trical receptacle, we strongly

recommend that you replace

it with a properly grounded

three-prong type. Have a

qualified electrician replace it following the

National Electric Code and any local codes

and ordinances that apply.

See Figures 2–1 and 2–2.

Domestic Power Grounding

For safety, the power cords used on this product have a

three-wire, grounding-type power cord. Figure 2-1 il-

lustrates the appropriate electrical outlet to use with the

power cord that is included with systems shipped to North

America.

International Power Grounding

The power cable normally provided for international use is

compatible with the power outlet used in many Continen-

tal European countries (Refer to Figure 2–2.) However,

if your application requires another type of power cord,

check with your equipment supplier, and follow local reg-

ulations concerning proper wiring and grounding.
