GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
This dryer must be grounded. In the
event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of elec-
tric 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 be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in ac-
cordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electric shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service representa-
tive or personnel if you are in doubt as to
whether the dryer is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided with the dry-
er: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
