Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.

electrical supply is required. Time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker is recommended.

recommended
that a qualified electrician determine that the

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. This washer/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 washer/dryer
is properly grounded. De not modify the plug provided with
the washer/dryer:
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
