GROUNDING

This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or

by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
This dryer is 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.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative
or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with
the dryer: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
