READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – DO NOT LEAVE THE AIR MOVER UNATTENDED WHEN IT IS PLUGGED IN
AND/OR OPERATING. UNPLUG THE UNIT WHEN NOT IN USE.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING – IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN
RESULT IN A 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.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (CONT’D.)
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounded
plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary adaptor
that looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green-colored rigid ear, lug or the like extending from the
adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a
metal screw. IN CANADA, THE USE OF A TEMPORARY ADAPTOR IS NOT PERMITTED BY THE
CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used
with this appliance.
