Grounding Instructions:

The HAAN® Duo™ must be connected to a grounded (3-prong) wiring system.

Do not plug it into an outlet that is not properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you aren’t sure if the outlet is properly grounded. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is designed for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug, as illustrated above.
