1. FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, -nils APPLIANCE
Mum- BE
PROPERLY
GROUNDED.
The
power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates
with a standard three-prong (grounding) wail re-
ceptacle (Fig. 1) to
minimize the possibil-
ity of electric
shock
hazard from this appli-
ance. Have the wall
receptacle checked by
a qualified electrician
to make sure the re-
ceptacle is properly
grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle is en-
Iargerslot in the adapter
must be aligned with
the larger slot in the
wall receptacle to pro-
vide proper polarity in
the connection of the
power cord.
countered, it is the personal responsibility and obli-
gation of the customer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle.
Do IVOR UNDER ANY circumstances, cur OR
REMOVE THE?THIRD [GROUND] PRONG FROM
THE POWER CORD*
USAGE OF ADAPTER PLUG
Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter plug. However, if you stiii eiect to use
an adapter, where iocai codes permit, a TEiVi F QRARY
CONN ECTiON may be made to a properiy grounded
two-prong waii receptacle by the use of a (JL iisted
adapter which is avaii-
