Connecting to a Power
Source
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized
plug (i.e., one blade is wider than the other). Use only a polarized,
UL listed (CSA certified in Canada) extension cord recommended
for outdoor use. A polarized plug will fit in a polarized cord only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the cord, reverse the cord.
If it still does not fit, purchase a polarized extension cord. If you
have a polarized extension cord and the extension cord plug does
not fit fully into the wall receptacle, reverse the plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do
not change the appliance or extension cord plug in any way.
Use only an extension cord recommended for outdoor use.
WARNING
If you do not fully seat the extension cord on the
inlet plug, or if the plug and cord do not fit firmly, the
loose plug could lead to overheating and cause a fire,
possibly burning you or others.
•
Ensure that you fully seat the cord on the plug.
•
Check the connection regularly to ensure that the
cord is firmly attached.
•
Do not use a worn-out or loose extension cord.
