This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

This heater is for use on 120 volt circuits and has a grounded plug.
An adapter is available for connecting three-blade grounding type
plugs to two-slot receptacles. The green grounding lug extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as
a properly grounded outlet box. The adapter should not be used if a
three-slot grounded receptacle is available.
