Use Of Adapter Plugs - GE 162D9622P001 Manual Del Propietário

However, if you must use an adapter,
where local codes permit, a temporary
connection may be made to a properly
grounded 2-prong wall outlet by use
of a UL-listed adapter available at
most local hardware stores.
The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in the
wall outlet to provide proper polarity
in the connection of the power cord.
When disconnecting the power cord
from the adapter, 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 terminal is very likely
to break with repeated use.

USE OF ADAPTER PLUGS

Because of potential safety hazards under certain
conditions, we strongly recommend against the use
of an adapter plug.
Please read and follow this
Safety Information carefully.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
If the adapter ground terminal
breaks, DO NOT USE the refrigerator
until a proper ground has been
established.
Attaching the adapter ground terminal to a
wall outlet cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless the cover screw is metal,
and not insulated, and the wall outlet is
grounded through the house wiring. You
should have the circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet
is properly grounded.
