Improper connection of an equipment-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with
a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided with the appliance. If it will not
fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal
120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like
the plug illustrated in Figure A.
Make sure that the
appliance is connected
to an outlet having the
same configuration as
the plug. No adapter
should be used with
the appliance.

the hose with
electrical wires has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change
the plug in any way.

If your home already has the system of plastic
pipes and inlet valves, you are ready to install the power
unit (refer to Install Power Unit section below). If not,
you can contract to have the system installed by a
professional or you may choose to do-it-yourself.
If you plan to install the system yourself, it is important to
carefully plan the location of each inlet valve, the power
unit, and the network of plastic pipes. This booklet
only deals with the installation of the power unit;
“How-To” booklets are generally included with installation
kits. Careful planning will help you determine the
installation kits to buy. The kits should contain
enough plastic pipe and fittings, and inlet valves
for your needs. Check with your dealer if you have
any questions
