8.Grounding and AC power cord connections
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK OR FIRE.
8.1 This battery charger is for use on a nominal
The plug pins must fit the receptacle (outlet).
8.2
Never alter the AC cord or plug provided – if it does not fit the outlet, have a proper grounded outlet installed by a qualified electrician. An improper connection can result in a risk of an electric shock or electrocution.
NOTE: Pursuant to Canadian Regulations, use of an adapter plug is not allowed in Canada. Use of an adapter plug in the United States is not recommended and should not be used.

*If the input rating of a charger is given in watts rather than in amperes, the corresponding ampere rating is to be determined by dividing the wattage rating by the voltage rating - for example:
1200 watts/120 volts = 10 amperes
