The temporary adapter should be used onlyuntil a properly grounded outlet (figure A) can be installed by a qualifiedelectrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending fromthe adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properlygrounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be heldin place by a metal screw.NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by theCanadian Electrical CodeEXTENSION CORDSUse only three-wire 12/3 or larger gauge approved extension cords that havethree-prong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept theappliance’s plug.
