conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and

qualified electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Do not
use any type adapter with this product.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PROTECTION
This water heater is provided with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug of the power supply cord. This
device provides additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of the plug or cord become
necessary, use only identical replacement parts that include GFCI protection.
