GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS
These appliances must be grounded� If they should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock� These
appliances have a power supply cord of at least 5�4 feet (1�65 m) in length and are equipped
with a grounding conductor and grounding plug� The plug must always be plugged directly
into an electrical outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and regulations�
Do not use an extension cord to plug the system.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualied electrician or service person if you are in
doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug of
the appliance – if it will not t the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualied electrician.
The unit has a grounding attachment plug. Make sure that the power unit is
connected to an outlet having the same conguration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this power unit. The power unit should be connected to an
independent circuit breaker.
