HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a
grounding pin.
Plug the power
cord (A) into
an appropriate
outlet (B) that is
properly installed
and grounded in
accordance with
all local codes
and ordinances.
The outlet must
be on a nominal 120-volt circuit.
A temporary
adapter (C) may
be used to con-
nect the power
cord to a 2-pole
receptacle (D)
as shown at the
right if a properly
grounded outlet is
not available.
The lug (E) or wire extending from the adapter must
be connected with a metal screw (F) to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a
qualifi ed electrician to determine whether the out-
let box cover is grounded before using an adapter.
The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualifi ed electrician.

DANGER: Improper connection of
the power cord increases the risk of electric
shock. Do not modify the plug—if it will not fit
an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether
the product is properly grounded, contact a
qualified electrician.
