ADAPTER PLUGS

Usage situations where appiiance's power cord wiii be disconnected

infrequentiy.

(Adapter plugs not

permitted in Canada)

Align large

prongs/slots

Ensure proper

grounding and firm

connection before

use.

Because of potential safety

hazards under certain conditions,

we strongiy recommend against the

use of an adapter piug. However,

if you still elect to use an adapter,

where local codes permit,

a TEMPORARY CONNECTION may

be mode to a properly grounded

2-prong wall receptacle by the

use of a UL listed adapter which is available at most local hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adopter must be aligned with the larger slot in the

wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the connection of the power

cord.

CAUTION: Attaching the adapter ground terminal to the wall receptacle

cover screw does not ground the appliance unless the cover screw is metal,

and not insulated, and the wall receptacle is grounded through the house

wiring.

You should have the circuit checked by a qualified electrician to moke sure

the receptacle is properly grounded.

When disconnecting the power cord from the adapter, always hold the

adapter with one hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground terminal is

very likely to break with repeated use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE

the appliance until a proper grounding has again been established.

Usage situations where appliance's power cord will be disconnected

frequently.

Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because frequent

disconnection of the power cord places undue strain on the adopter

and leads to eventual failure of the adopter ground terminal. You should

hove the 2-prong wall receptacle replaced with a 3-prong (grounding)

receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the appliance.
