Grounding Instructions:

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipmentgrounding 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.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electronic shock.

Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether this product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product – if it will not ﬁt the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualiﬁed electrician.

This product is for use on a normal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch (A). A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter used in sketches (B) and (C) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch (B), if a properly grounded plug is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualiﬁed electrician. The green colored, rigid ear tab or the like 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.

IMPORTANT: If it is difficult to pull up on the footrest extension lever, or the foot and calf massager does not extend when gentle pressure is applied with your feet, the foot and calf massager is not in the correct position to release and extend.

Do not

force either the footrest extension lever or the foot and calf massager extension, or you may damage the mechanism.
