Grounding instructions:
A 115-volt (103.5 min., 126.5 max.),
60-Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-ampere fused
and properly grounded electrical
supply is required. A time-delay fuse or
time-delay circuit breaker is
recommended. Use a separate circuit to
connect only the dehumidifier.

supply cord having a 3-prong ground
plug.
To minimize possible shock hazard, the
cord must be plugged into a mating
3-prong ground-type outlet, grounded
in accordance with local codes and
ordinances. If a mating outlet is not
available, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the
customer to have the properly
grounded outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

Plug into a grounded 3 prong
outlet.
