GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:

 This 

dryer must be grounded. In the event of a 

malfunction or breakdown, grounding will 

reduce the risk of electric shock by providing 

a path of least resistance for electric current. 

This dryer uses 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.

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 

appliance is properly grounded. 

DO NOT

 modify 

the plug on the power supply cord. If it will not 

fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a 

qualified electrician. 

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a permanently connected dryer:

 This 

dryer must be connected to a grounded metal, 

permanent wiring system, or an equipment-

grounding conductor must be run with the circuit 

conductors and connected to the equipment-

grounding terminal on the appliance.

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 

appliance is properly grounded.
