ur]dercertain conditions,we strongly
recommend againstthe useof an
extension cord. However, if you still
elect to usean extension cord, it is
absolutely necessarythat it be a UL
listed 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord and that the
current carrying rating of the cord in
amperesbe equalto or greater than
the branch circuit sizeshown on the
rating nameplate of the appliance.
Suchextension cords are obtainable through your local service
