plug.  If the provided plug does not fi t into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the 
obsolete outlet.

Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience 
receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.  Unplug this apparatus during 
lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
