Installation requirements
Grounding
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, the ground will
reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electrical
current.
Gas models
WARNING
• Your dryer has a cord with 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.
• Do not modify the plug provided with your dryer – if it doesn’t fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• Do not connect the ground wire to plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes.
Electric models
WARNING
• Your dryer has an optional cord with an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. This cord is sold separately.
• The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• Do not modify the plug provided with your dryer – if it doesn’t fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• If a power cord is not used and the electric dryer is to be permanently wired, the dryer
must be connected to a permanently grounded metal wiring system, or an equipment
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding terminal or lead on the dryer.
