Electrical Requirements
OBSERVE ALL GOVERNING CODES AND ORDINANCES.
Electrical ground is required on this appliance.
A 115volt, 60 Hz.,AC only, 15 or 20 ampere fused electrical supply is required. (Time
delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit serving only this appliance be provided. Do not use an extension cord.
DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE POWER SUPPLY CORD GROUND PRONG.
RECOMMENDED GROUNDING METHOD
For your personal safety, this appliance must be grounded. This appliance is equipped with a power supply cord having a 3.prong grounding plug. To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be plugged into a mating 3.prong ground- ing type wall receptacle, grounded in accord- ance with the National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances. If a mating wall recepta- cle is not available, it is the personal responsibility and obilgation of the customer to have a properly grounded 3.prong wall receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
ALTERNATE GROUNDING METHOD
If changing and properly grounding the wall re- ceptacle is impossible and where local codes permit (consult your electrical inspector], a tem- porary adaptor may be plugged into the existing 2.prong wall receptacle to mate with the 3.prong power supply cord. THIS HOWEVER, IS NOT
RECOMMENDED.
If this is done, you must connect the grounding eyeleton the adapterto the wall receptacle cover plate screw and from this same screw, you must connecta separate copper ground wire (#I4 min- imum] to a grounded cold water pipe? Do not ground to a gas supply pipe. Do not connect to
electrical supply until appliance is perma- nently grounded.
