Grounding Requirements
Your Dehumidifier will operate on any 11S volt, 3-pronged
(grounded), 60 Hz circuit. A separate line is not required,
but it is advisable not to overload the circuit with heavy
duty appliances such as washing machines, etc. For your
safety, this dehumidifier is equipped with a 3-pronged,
grounding plug and must be plugged into a properly
grounded outlet (Figs. 1 & 2). If your outlet is not of the
proper type, it is your responsibility to have the outlet and
wiring changed to the correct type. DO NOT cut off the
third (grounding) prong. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER.
