mMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTmONS
This product requires a three-prong grounded outlet.
The installer must perform a ground continuity check
on the power outlet box before beginning tl3e
installation to insure that the outlet box is properly
grounded. If not properly grounded, or if the outlet
box does not meet electrical requirements noted
(under ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS), a qualified
electrician should be employed to correct any
deficiencies.

You should have the wall receptacle
and circuit checked
by a qualified
electrician to make sure the receptacle
is
properly grounded.
Where a standard two-prong wall receptacle
is
encountered,
it is very important
to have it replaced
with a properly grounded
three-prong wall receptacle,
installed by a qualified
electrician.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES,
CUT,
DEFORM OR REMOVE ANY OF THE PRONGS
FROM THE POWER
CORD. DO NOT USE WITH
AN EXTENSION
CORD.
