use in unventilated areas or where dust
or explosive vapors can build up.
• To reduce the risk of electrical
shock,
use extension cords specifically marked
as suitable for outdoor appliances.
The
electrical rating of the cord must not be
less than the rating of the unit. The cord
must be marked with the suffix '_W-A"(in
Canada, "W*'). Make sure your exten-
sion cord is in good condition. Inspect
extension cord before use and replace if
damaged.
An
undersized
extension
cord will cause a drop in line voltage re-
sulting in loss of power and overheating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller
the gauge
number, the
heavier the cord.
(NOTE: The correct size to be used de-
pending on the cord length is shown in
this manual.
See SELECT AN EXTEN-
SION CORD in the ASSEMBLY section).

tainer and connect to recessed plug as
shown in this manual.
