Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for the
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.

DANGER

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether
the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, you may
temporarily use an adaptor (such as the one shown in Figure
B) until you have a proper outlet (such as the one shown in
Figure C) installed by a qualified electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in
A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in
Figure B may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle
as shown in Figure D if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet
The tab for grounding screw Figure B 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.

Figure C can be installed by a qualified electrician.
