To minimize possible shock hazard, the

cord must be plugged into a mating

3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded

in accordance with local codes and

ordinances. If a mating outlet is not

available, it is the personal

responsibility and obligation of the

customer to have the properly

grounded outlet installed by a qualified

electrician.
