GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER:
Improper use of the grounding plug can result
in a risk of electric shock.
This self-contained extractor must be properly grounded. If
it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This machine is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding
plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. If repair or replacement
of the cord or plug is necessary, 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 stripes is the grounding wire.
This unit is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit, and
has a grounded plug that looks like the plug illustrated in
(Fig. A). A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter
illustrated in (Fig. B&C) may be used to connect the plug
to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in (Fig. B) if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (Fig. A) can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green color rigid ear, lug, or the
like extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box
cover. 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.
WARNING!
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a 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.
