circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord. Any questions concerning
power and or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized Avanti
Products service center.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120-volt 60Hz electrical outlet with three-prong ground.
