Requirements
The unit is supplied with a 3-wire line cord. It should be plugged into an
outlet supplying the correct voltage for the unit and designed for 3-prong
plugs.
For an outlet designed to accept 2-prong (ungrounded) plugs, the best
recommendation is to have a qualified electrician replace it with a new
grounded outlet.
If a plug must be installed, use only the 3-prong grounded type, rated for
the unit load requirements and matching the power outlet. Make sure the
green ground wire is secured to the plug ground post.
Turn the power switch OFF and insert the plug into the outlet.
Note
Disconnect unit from power source when not in use.
