USING AN ADAPTER
Due to potential safety hazards, we strongly
recommend against the use of an adapter
plug. However, if the still elect to use an
adapter, where local codes may permit, a
TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be
made to a properly grounded two prong wall
receptacle by the use of a UL/CSA listed
adapter, which is available at most hardware
stores.
