equipped with an AC electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding type
plug. The AC plug must be connected to an appropriate receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all local codes and ordinances. See the
owner’s manual supplied with the charger for specific operating instructions before using the charger.

use a three-conductor no. 13 AWG (American Wire Gauge) or no. 15 SWG (British Standard Wire
Gauge), heavy-duty cord with ground, properly wired and in good electrical condition. Keep it as short
as possible (no more than 12 feet (3.7 m)). Place all cords so they will not be stepped on, tripped over,
or otherwise subject to damage or stress.
