DANGER!
Risk of Death or Serious Injury
Electric shock can cause death or serious injury
–
To avoid electric shock, inspect plug and cord for
cuts and/or frayed wires. Replace cut cords or frayed
wires immediately.
WARNING!
Power wheelchairs are equipped with three-prong
(grounding) plugs for protection against possible
shock hazards. Where a two-prong wall receptacle
is encountered, it is the personal responsibility and
obligation of the customer to contact a qualified
electrician and have the two-prong replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle in
accordance with the National Electrical code. If you
must use an extension cord, use only a three-wire
extension cord having the same or higher electrical
rating as the device being connected. DO NOT, under
any circumstances, cut or remove the round grounding
prong from any plug used with or for Invacare products.
In addition, Invacare has placed RED warning tags on
some equipment. DO NOT remove these tags.
DANGER!
Risk of Death, Injury or Damage
Shock hazards and risk of fire exist due to use of
improper extension cord and/or use of three prong
adapters.
–
To avoid injury or product damage, when using an
extension cord, use only a UL approved three wire
extension cord having at least 16 AWG (American
Wire Gauge) wire and the same or higher electrical
rating as the device being connected.
–
DO NOT use three prong to two prong adapters.
