The larger slot in the adapter
must be aligned with the larger slot
in the wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the
power cord.
CAUTION: Attaching adapter

appliance unless cover screw is
metal, and not insulated, and wall
outlet is grounded through house
wiring. Youshould have the circuit

Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
westrongly recommend againstthe
use of an extension cord. However,
ifyou stillelect to use an extension
cord, it is absolutely necessary that
it be a LTLlisted 3-wiregrounding
type appliance extension cord and
that the current carrying rating of
the cord in amperes be equal to or
greater than the branch circuit size
shown on the rating name plate of
the appliance. Suchextension cords
are obtainable through your local
