WARNING
GROUNDING
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• Improper installation of the grounding plug is able to result in a risk of electric shock.
• When repair or replacement of the cord or plug is required, do not connect the grounding wire to either
flat blade terminal.
• The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the ground-
ing wire.
• Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman when the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or when in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
• Do not modify the plug provided; if it does not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
• This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and has a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated
in the figure below.
• Only connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug.
• Do not use an adapter with this product.
Extension Cords:
• Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that accepts
the plug on the product.
• Make sure your extension cord is not damaged. If an extension cord is necessary, use 12 AWG
(2.5 mm
2
) minimum to carry the current that the product draws.
• An undersized cord results in a drop in line voltage and loss of power and overheating.
