plug.
WARNING: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall
receptacle cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the

We strongly discourage the use of an adapter due to potential safety hazards.
For temporary connections, use only a UL-listed adapter, available from most
local hardware stores. Ensure that the large slot in the adapter is aligned with
the large slot in the receptacle for a proper polarity connection.
To disconnect the power cord from the adapter, use one hand on each to avoid
damaging the ground terminal. Avoid frequently unplugging the power cord as
this can lead to eventual ground terminal damage.
WARNING: Never use the appliance with a broken adapter.
We strongly discourage the use of an extension cord due to potential safety
hazards. For temporary situations, use only CSA certified and UL listed 3-wire
grounded extension cords, rated 15 A, 125 V.
