grounded.
The power
cord of this appliance
is equipped with a three-prong
(grounding) plug which mates with
a standard three-prong (grounding)
wall outlet (Fig. 1)to minimize the
possibility of electric shock hazard
from this appliance.
use of
adapter pll~g
(l15=volt units)
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against use
of an adapter plug. Isowever,'tfyou
still elect to use an adapter, where
local codes permit, a TEMPORARY
COmCT-ION
maybe made to a
properly grounded two-prong wall
outlet by use of a ~ listed adapter
(Fig. 2) available at most local
hardware stores.

INSURE PROPER
GROUND E XISTS
BEFORE USE
Have the wall outlet and circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall
outlet is encountered, it is your per-
sonal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a properly
grounded three-prong wall outlet.

FIRM CONNECTION
Fig. 2 n\
BEFORE USE
The larger slot in the adapter
must be aligned with the larger slot
in the wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the
power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching adapter
ground terminal to wall outlet
cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and wall
outlet is grounded through house
wiring. You should have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician
to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
when
disconnecting
the
p o%ver
cord from the adapter9 always hold
the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground
terminal is very likely to break with
repeated use.
useofextension
Cords
Because of potential safety
hazards ~~nder certain conditions,
we strongly recomend
against the
use of an extemion cord. However,
if you still elect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that
it be a ~, listed 3-wire grounding
type appliance extension cord and
that the current carlying rating of
the cord in amperes be equal to or
greater than the branch circuit size
shown on the rating name plate of
the appliance. Such extension cords
are obtainable through your local
service organization.
