Grounding Instructions - Hoover Commercial HUSHTONE CH54113 Mode D'emploi

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction
or breakdown, 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
(B) and grounding plug (A)(Fig.1). The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet (C) that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances(Fig 1).
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in
the 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. This appliance is
for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug (A) illustrated
in (Fig. 1). A temporary adapter (D) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a
properly grounded outlet is not available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet (C) can be installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored
rigid ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground
(G) such as a properly grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the adapter is used, it must be
held in place by a metal screw. Note: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by
the Canadian Electrical Code.
