SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Household Use Only

A polarized plug has one rounded prong and one straight prong.

The rounded end goes into the longest socket slot.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not fit, contact qualified personnel to install the proper outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
