SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
,/k WARN ING:
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the ground prong from the power cord. To prevent
personal injury or damage to the dryer, the electrical
power cord must be plugged into a properly
grounded outlet.
• For personal safety, this dryer must be properly
grounded. Failure to do so can result in electric shock
or injury.
• Refer to the installation instructions in this manual
for specific electrical requirements for your model.
Failure to follow these instructions can create an
electric shock hazard and/or a fire hazard.
• This dryer must be plugged into a properly grounded
outlet. Electric shock can result if the dryer is not
properly grounded. Have the wall outlet and circuit
checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the
outlet is properly grounded. Failure to follow these
instructions can create an electric shock hazard
and/or a fire hazard.
• The dryer should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating
that matches the rating plate. This provides the best
performance and also prevents overloading house
wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard from
overheated wires.
Never unplug your dryer by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight
out from the outlet. The power cord can be damaged,
resulting in a risk of fire and electric shock.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end. The power cord can
melt, creating an electric shock and/or fire hazard.
When installing or moving the dryer, be careful not
to pinch, crush, or damage the power cord. This will
prevent injury and prevent damage to the dryer from
fire and electric shock.
