Polarized Plug

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized
plug. A polarized plug has one rounded prong that is wider and one
straight prong. The rounded end goes into the longest socket slot.
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. Do
not alter the plug in any way.
