eLeCTRiCAL ReQuiReMenTS

Some models require a 115/120-volt AC,
60-Hz grounded outlet protected with a
15-amp time-delay fuse or circuit breaker .
The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the possibility
of electric shock hazard . If the wall outlet you plan to
use is only a 2-prong outlet, it is your responsibility to
have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet .
Some models require 230/208-volt AC,
protected with a time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker . These models should be installed on
their own single branch circuit for best
performance and to prevent overloading
house or apartment wiring circuits, which
could cause a possible fire hazard from
overheating wires .
