Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against
the use of an adapter plug.
However, if you still elect to use
an adapter, where local codes

properly grounded two-prong
wall receptacle by the use of a UL
listed adapter (Fig. 2) which is
available at most local hardware
