In the event
of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current.
•
Thisappliancemustbeequippedwithacord
havinganequipment-groundingconductorand
a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

Do not modify the plug.
If it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

grounded metal, permanent wiring system or
anequipment-groundingconductormustbe
run with the circuit conductors and connected

Electric shock may result if the
dryer is not properly grounded.
•
The dryer should always be plugged into its
ownindividualelectricaloutletwhichhasa
voltageratingthatmatchestheratingplate.
This
provides the best performance and also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits which can cause
a fire hazard from overheated wires.

Neverunplugthedryerbypullingonthepower
cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull
straight out from the outlet.
The power cord may
be damaged, resulting in a risk of fire and electric
shock.

Repair or replace immediately all power
cordsthathavebecomefrayedorotherwise
damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks
or abrasion damage along its length or at either
end.
The power cord may melt, creating electric
shock and/or fire hazard.

Wheninstallingormovingthedryer,becareful
not to pinch, crush, or damage the power cord.
This will prevent injury and damage to the dryer
from fire and electric shock.
