IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) Protection
This product is supplied with a Ground Fault Cir-
cuit Interrupter (GFCI) built into the power cord
plug. This device provides additional protection
from the risk of electric shock. If power is inter-
rupted in the line, the GFCI will automatically
re-close the circuit to the load after power is re-
stored. Depending on the GFCI model, it may
be necessary to manually operate the reset but-
ton to restore power to the GFCI load circuit. If
replacement of the plug or cord is needed use
identical replacement parts.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This product
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate out-
let that is properly installed and grounded in ac-
cordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER-
Improper connection of the equip-
ment-grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electrocution. Check with a qualified electri-
cian or service personnel if you are in doubt as
to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided with the product -
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician. Do not use
any type of adapter with this product
.
