This product is for use on a nominal 120 V or nominal 220 V circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug illustrated in sketch A above. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated
in sketches B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The gold colored rigid ear, lug, and the like,
extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by the metal screw.
Â
IMPORTANT
: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the
Canadian Electric Code.
