DRIP LOOP:
This heater must be plugged into a grounded
GFCI (Ground Fault Interrupted Circuit) receptacle
with a “drip loop” (see Figure 1). The drip loop
will prevent water from running along the power
cord and getting the plug or wall receptacle wet.
To create a drip loop, be sure that a portion of
the power cord is lower than the level of the
wall receptacle as shown in Figure 1. If you are
unsure about the electrical supply and connec-
tion, contact a quali ed licensed electrician. If for
any reason the plug or wall receptacle gets wet,
do not grasp or unplug the power cord until after
the power has been switched off at the main fuse
or circuit breaker.
