IF YOU MUST USE THIS APPLIANCE IN THE BA-
THROOM, INSTALL A GFCI (GROUND FAULT CIR-
CUIT INTERRUPTER). NOW!
Your local electrician can help you decide which type is
best for you – a portable unit that plugs into the electri-
cal outlet or a permanent unit installed by your electri-
cian. The National Electrical Code now requires GFCIs in
the bathrooms, garages, and outdoor outlets of all new
homes.
Why do you need a GFCI?
A regular fuse or circuit breaker won’t protect you under
these circumstances. A GFCI offers you far greater pro-
tection.

A GFCI can save your life. Compared to that, the
price is small! Don’t wait… install one now!
