FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug that mates with a standard three-prong (grounding) wall receptacle to minimize the
risk of electric shock hazard from this appliance. The customer should have the wall receptacle and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle
is properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and obligation of the customer to have it replaced with a properly grounded
three-prong wall receptacle.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD.
USAGE SITUATIONS WHERE THE APPLIANCE'S POWER CORD WILL BE DISCONNECTED INFREQUENTLY
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, we strongly recommend against the use of an adapter plug. However, if you still elect to use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to a properly grounded two-prong wall receptacle by the use of a UL listed adapter which is
available at most hardware stores. The larger slot of the adapter must be aligned 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. The customer should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make 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 ground has again been established.
USAGE SITUATIONS WHERE THE APPLIANCE'S POWER CORD WILL BE DISCONNECTED FREQUENTLY
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because frequent disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the
adapter ground terminal. The customer should have the two-prong wall receptacle replaced with a three-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician before
using the appliance.
