MUST be properly grounded. Electrical shock

can result if the dryer is not properly grounded. Follow the
instructions in this manual for proper grounding.

 Do not use an extension cord with this dryer. Some extension

cords are not designed to withstand the amounts of electrical
current this dryer utilizes and can melt, creating electrical shock
and/or fire hazard. Locate the dryer within reach of the receptacle
for the length power cord to be purchased, allowing some slack
in the cord. Refer to the pre-installation requirements in this
manual for the proper power cord to be purchased.

 A U.L. approved strain relief must be installed onto power

cord. If the strain relief is not attached, the cord can be pulled
out of the dryer and can be cut by any movement of the cord,
resulting in electrical shock.

 Do not use an aluminum wired receptacle with a copper

wired power cord and plug (or vice versa). A chemical reaction
occurs between copper and aluminum and can cause electrical
shorts.  The proper wiring and receptacle is a copper wired

DANGER

 Improper connection of the equipment

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock.
Check with a licensed electrician if you are in doubt as to whether
the appliance is properly grounded.

For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
1. The dryer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction

or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical
shock by a path of least resistance for electrical current.

2. Since your dryer is equipped with a power supply 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. If in doubt, call a licensed electrician.
