GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least re-
sistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This product
is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and or-
dinances.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electrocution. Check with a qual-
ified electrician or service personnel if
you are in doubt as to whether the out-
let is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product - if it
will not fit the outlet, have a proper out-
let installed by a qualified electrician.
Do not use any type of adapter with this
product.
NOTE - In Canada, the use of a tempo-
rary adaptor is not permitted by the Ca-
nadian Electrical Code.
HD 1.8/13 only: GROUND
FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPT-
ER PROTECTION
The HD 1.8/13 is supplied with a
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
built into the power cord plug. This de-
vice provides additional protection
from the risk of electric shock. If power
is interrupted in the line, the GFCI will
automatically re-close the circuit to the
load after power is restored. Depend-
ing on the GFCI model, it may be nec-
essary to manually operate the reset
button to restore power to the GFCI
load circuit. If replacement of the plug
or cord is needed use identical re-
placement parts.
WATER SUPPLY
CAUTION
When connecting the water inlet to the
water supply mains, local regulations
of your water company must be ob-
served. In some areas the unit must
not be connected directly to the public
drinking water supply. This is to ensure
that there is no feedback of chemicals
into the water supply. Direct connec-
tion via a receiver tank or backflow pre-
venter, for example, is permitted.
