2. Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. If there is a malfunction or
breakdown, the grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to flow, thus reducing 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 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 does not fit the outlet; have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Followed by either instruction a) or b) below:
a) This product is for use on a normal power circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in
Figure 1 below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter
illustrated 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 outlet 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, lug, 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.
b) This product is for use on a normal power circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in
Figure 1 below. Make sure that the product is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug.
