done in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, in accordance with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA
C22.1 – Latest Revisions and local codes and ordinances. It is your responsibility to provide adequate
electrical service for your dryer.

Revision (for the U.S.) or CAN/CGA – B149 Installation Codes – Latest Revision (for Canada) and local
codes and ordinances.
Grounding
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, the ground will reduce the risk of
electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electrical current.
