ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

RECOMMENDED GROUNDING
METHOD
The clothes vitalizer, when installed, must be
electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes or in the absence of local codes, with
National Electrical Code, ANSI/ NFPA 70*.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: This clothes
vitalizer must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will re-
duce the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current.
The power supply cord plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly in-
stalled and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
WARNING - Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electric shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service technician if
you are in doubt as to whether the appli-
ance is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the appliance. If it
will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
