WARNING-Improperuseethegroundingplugcanresultinariskofelectricshock.
This appliance must be g_x_unded. In the event of
an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the
risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current.
This appliance is equii)ped with a power cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding i)lug.
The i_lug must be phlgged into an outlet that is
propedy installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or se_Mce technician
if the grounding instructions are not completely
undeistood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
appliance is propedy grounded.
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet,
it is your personal responsibility and obligation
to have it replaced with a propedy grounded
3-prong wall outlet.

ADAPTERPLUGS
Usage situations where appliance's power cord will be disconnected infrequently.
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against the use ofan adapter plug.
Howe\'e_; if you still elect to use an adapter, where local codes
pemfit, a TEMPORARYCONNECTION mav be made to a im,perlv
grounded 2-prong wall receptacle by the use of a LrI, listed adapter
which is available at most local hardware stores.
The laiger slot in the adapter must be aligned with the linger slot in
the wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of
the power cord.

CAUTION."Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle cover screw does not ground
the appliance unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded
through the house wiring.
_m should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the receptacle is properly
grounded.
&,_]_endisconnecting the power cord flxm_ the adapte_; alwa):s hold the adapter with one hand. If this
is not done, the adapter ground temfinal is very likely to break with repeated use. Should this hai_pen,
DO NOYUSEthe appliance until a proper ground has again been established.
Usage situations where appfiance's power cord will be disconnected frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because fl'equent disconnection of the power cord places
undue strain on the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter ground te_ninal. Yi)u should
have the 2-prong wall receptacle replaced with a 3-prong (grounding) receptacle by a qualified electrician
before using the appliance.
