7.3 Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This product is equipped with a cord that has a grounding wire
with a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is properly
installed with a verified ground. Please contact your dialysis center for any
questions concerning the outlet.
When the HomeChoice/HomeChoice PRO APD System
is used on a 120V circuit, make sure that the plug is as
shown at right.
WARNING
If you do not understand these grounding instructions,
contact a qualified service person. Improper use of the
grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
WARNING
If you can not insert the power cord plug into the wall
outlet, do not alter the plug. Contact an electrician to
modify or replace the wall outlet.
