power company. For those sets designed to
operate from battery power, refer to the
operating instructions.
Grounding or Polarization
This set is equipped with a polarized AC
power cord plug (a plug having one blade

grounding type plug (a plug having a third
pin for grounding).
Follow the instructions below:
For the set with a polarized AC power
cord plug
This plug will fit into the power outlet only
one way. This is a safety feature. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the
outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your
electrician to have a suitable outlet
installed. Do not defeat the safety purpose
of the polarized plug by forcing it in.
Alternate Warning

grounding type AC plug
This plug will only fit into a grounding-
type power outlet. This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug into the
outlet, contact your electrician to have a
suitable outlet installed. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the grounding plug.
