B. Usage Situations Where Appliance Power Cord Will
Be Disconnected Frequently.
Do not use an adapter plug in these situations because
disconnecting of the power cord places undue strain on
the adapter and leads to eventual failure of the adapter
ground terminal. The customer should have the 2-prong
wall receptacle replaced with a B-prong (grounding)
receptacle by a qualified electrician before using the
appliance.

home installation must conform with the Manufactured
Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR,

when such standard is not applicable, the Standard
for Manufactured Home Installations, latest edition
