(lighter fluid, gasoline, kerosene, etc.) or use in areas where they may
be present.

given off by oil-based paint, paint thinner, some moth-proofing
substances, flammable dust, or other explosive or toxic vapors.

cleaner, etc.).

one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
