GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

two-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it is the personal responsibility
and obligation of the customer to contact a qualified electrician and have
the two-prong receptacle replaced with a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle in accordance with the National Electrical Code. If you must
use an extension cord, use ONLY a three-wire extension cord having the
same or higher electrical rating as the device being connected.
