Operating Instructions
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an adapter plug.
However, if you must use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a
temporary
connection
may be made to a properly
grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use of
a UL-listed adapter available at most
local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must be
aligned with the larger slot in the wall
outlet to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord from
the adapter, always hold the adapter in place
with one hand while pulling the power cord
plug with the other hand. If this is not done,
the adapter ground terminal is very likely to
break with repeated use.
If the adapter ground terminal breaks,
DO NOT USE
the dehumidifier until a proper
ground has been established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a wall
outlet cover screw does not ground the appliance
unless the cover screw is metal, and not insulated,
and the wall outlet is grounded through the house
wiring. You should have the circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
WARNING!
Because of potential safety hazards under
certain conditions, we strongly recommend
against the use of an extension cord.
However, if you must use an extension cord,
it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL-
listed, 14 gauge, 3-wire grounding type
appliance extension cord having a
grounding type plug and outlet and that the
electrical rating of the cord be 15 amperes
(minimum) and 125 volts.
