SPECIAL CORD SET 
INSTRUCTIONS 
NOTICE
For your protection, this unit is equipped with a 
3-conductor cord set that has a molded 3-prong 
grounding-type plug, and should be used in combina-
tion with a properly connected grounding-type outlet 
as shown in Figure A.
1. A short power supply cord (or detachable power sup-
ply cord) is to be provided to reduce risks resulting from 
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
2. Longer detachable power supply cords or extension 
cords are available and may be used if care is exer-
cised in their use.
3. If a long detachable power supply cord or extension 
cord is used:
 a)  The marked electrical rating of the detachable 
power supply cord or extension cord should be 
at least as great as the electrical rating of the 
appliance;
 b)  If the appliance is of the grounded type, the exten-
sion cord should be a grounded type 3-wire cord; 
and 
 c)  The longer cord should be arranged so that it will 
not drape over the counter top or table top where 
it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
NOTE: Do not remove the grounding prong.
CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must be 
determined that the outlet cover plate screw is 
properly grounded. If in doubt, 
consult a licensed electrician. 
Never use an adapter unless 
you are sure it is properly 
grounded.
Note: Use of an adapter is not 
permitted in Canada.
