The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in ac-
cordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical
Code, CSA C22.1, if an external electrical source is utilized. This
appliance is equipped with a three-prong [grounding] plug for
your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do
not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. For an
ungrounded receptacle, an adapter, which has two prongs and a
wire for grounding, can be purchased, plugged into the ungrounded
receptacle and its wire connected to the receptacle mounting screw.
With this wire completing the ground, the appliance cord plug can
be plugged into the adapter and be electrically grounded. A 7/8" hole
is provided in the junction box for use with a conduit connector if
local codes require this type of protection.
Thermostat Installation
The thermostat should be installed in the same room as the furnace
4' to 5' above the floor and away from another heat source (cooking
stove, hot water heater, etc.) including walls and doorways with
a heat source in an adjoining room. Do Not Install Thermostat
on Outside Wall.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servic
-
ing controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous
operation. Verify proper operation after servicing.
