IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes
and ordinances.
The dryer is fitted with an electricity supply
cord and plug. It should be connected to an
electricity supply socket at the voltage
shown on the rating plate. The minimum
supply fuse capacity should be 5A. The
dryer must be positioned so that the plug is
accessible. If the fitted plug is not used, the

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced with a specially terminated cord by
an authorized service agent or a similarly
competent person in order to avoid a
hazard.
If codes permit and an additional earth
bond wire is used, it is recommended that a
competent electrician determine that the
earth bond path is adequate.

WARNING
EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS
For an earthed, cord-connected dryer:
This dryer must be earthed. In the event
of malfunction or breakdown, earthing
will reduce the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. This dryer is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-
earthing conductor and a earthing plug.
The plug must be plugged into an
appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and earthed in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of
the equipment-earthing conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check
with a competent electrician or service
representative or personnel if you are in
doubt as to whether the dryer is properly
earthed. Do not modify the plug provided
with the dryer:
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a competent
electrician.
