SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a  
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance  
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor (C) and grounding plug (A).  
The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet (B) that is properly installed and grounded  
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.  
WARNING  
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in the risk of  
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt  
as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with  
the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified  
electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding  
plug that looks like the plug (A) illustrated in Fig. 1. A temporary adapter (D) may be  
used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle (E) if a properly grounded outlet is not  
available (Fig. 2). The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded  
outlet (B) can be installed by a qualified electrician (Fig. 1). The green colored rigid  
ear, lug, or the like (F) extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent  
ground (G) such as a properly grounded outlet box cover (Fig. 2). Whenever the  
adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw. NOTE: In Canada, the use  
of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.

CHECK FOR COLOR FASTNESS  
Before cleaning carpet/upholstery, test for color fastness. Dampen a

Gently rub the cloth over the area. Check each color for color bleeding. If  
the cloth remains clean, it should be safe to clean the carpet/upholstery.
