ELECTRICAL HAZARDS
This product 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.
DANGER - IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT-
GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF
ELECTROCUTION. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE INDOUBT AS TO WHETHER
THE UNIT IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.
This unit is equipped with a grounding terminal for your protection. Always
complete the ground path from the unit to an external ground source as
instructed in the section labeled "Grounding Instructions" in the Preparation
section of this manual.
The unit is a potential source of electrical shock if not kept dry. Keep the
unit dry and do not use in rain or wet conditions. To protect from moisture,
operate it on a dry surface under an open, canopy-like structure. Dry your
hands if wet before touching the unit.
Plug appliances directly into the unit. Or, use a heavy duty, outdoor-rated
extension cord that is rated (in watts or amps) at least equal to the sum of
the connected appliance loads. Check that the entire cord is free of cuts or
tears and that the plug has all three prongs, especially a grounding pin.
NEVER try to power the house wiring by plugging the unit into a wall out-
let, a practice known as "back feeding". This is an extremely dangerous
practice that presents an electrocution risk to utility workers and neighbors
served by the same utility transformer. It also bypasses some of the built-in
household circuit protection devices.
If you must connect the unit to the house wiring to power appliances, have
a qualified electrician install the appropriate equipment in accordance with
local electrical codes. Or, check with your utility company to see if it can
install an appropriate power transfer switch.
For power outages, permanently installed stationary units are better suited
for providing backup power to the home. Even a properly connected por-
table unit can become overloaded. This may result in overheating or stress-
ing the unit components, possibly leading to a unit failure.
