codes pemfit, a temporary connection may be made
to a properly grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use
of a UIAisted adaptor a\_dlable at most local
hardwai'e stoi'es.
The linger slot in the adapter must be aligned Mth
the larger slot in the wall outlet to provide proper
polarity in the connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord fl'om the
a(lapte_; always hold the adapter in place with one
hand while pulling the power cord plug with the
other hand. If this is not done, the adapter ground
