WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet 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. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt
circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug (A) illustrated
in Fig. 1. A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug
to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is not available
(Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet (B) can be installed by a quali fi e d electrician (Fig. 1). The
green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter
must be connected to a permanent ground (G) such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it
must be held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use of
a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
