Polarized plug instructions
− This vacuum is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
plug will fit into the polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not properly fit into the outlet at first, reverse it. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to
modify the plug in any way.
Extension cord instructions
− WARNING: Use only extension cords that are rated for outdoor
use. Extension cords in poor condition or that are too small in
wire size can pose fire and shock hazards. To reduce the risk
of these hazards when using an extension cord, be sure it is
in good condition and that the connection does not come into
contact with liquid. To keep power loss to a minimum, use the
following table to choose the minimum wire size extension
cord.
