exhaust opening.
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
120-Volt, 60-Hz., AC-only, 15- or 20-amp fused electrical
supply is required. (Time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is
recommended.) It is recommended that a separate circuit
serving only this dryer be provided.
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or
breakdown, grounding 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-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
9"
be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
(22.9 cm)
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
WARNING:
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
