Electrical connection

WARNING: Before beginning any work on the electric
installation, be sure that the main circuit breaker panel
switch is "off" to avoid any danger of electric shock. Failure to do
so may result in serious injury or death. All mounting and plumbing
must be completed before proceeding with electrical hook-up.
Where required by local, state or national electrical codes, the
circuit should be equipped with a ground fault interrupter.
WARNING: As with any electric appliance, failure to electrically
ground unit may result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION: Installing a Mini 2-1, Mini 2.5-1, Mini 3-1, or Mini
3.5-1 on a 208 V or 220–240 V circuit will destroy the heating
element. This is considered improper installation and will void
your factory warranty.
