entrapment.
Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
Prevent Injury
o To prevent shock hazard and assure stability during operation, the laundry center must be installed and electrically grounded by a qualified
service person in accordance with local codes. Installation instructions are packed in the laundry center for the installer's reference. Refer

reinstalled by a qualified service person.

grounded system. Never ground the laundry center to a gas pipe. Do not use an extension
cord or an adaptor plug.

death.
