   For power supply cord installation, plug into a grounded  

outlet. For direct wire installation, turn on power.

   If you live in a hard water area, use of a water softener is    

recommended to control the buildup of scale through the    

water system in the dryer. Over time, the buildup of lime  

scale may clog different parts of the water system, which will  

reduce product performance. Excessive scale buildup may  

lead to the need for certain part replacement or repair.
