Grounding Instructions

☐ This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.

DANGER: Riskofelectricshock. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.

☐ If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
☐ Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.

NOTICE: Follow local codes when determining the connection type. The temporary connection may not be permitted by local electrical codes.

NOTICE: To avoid possible product malfunction, do not plug in the seat until instructed.

Preferred Connection

□ Connect the grounding plug into a grounded outlet that has the same configuration as the plug.
