SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
A WARNING" To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance,
follow basic precautions, including the following:
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove
the ground prong from the power cord. To prevent
personal injury or damage to the dryer, the electrical
power cord must be plugged into a properly grounded
outlet.
For personal safety, this dryer must be properly
grounded. Failure to do so can result in electrical
shock or injury.
Refer to the installation instructions in this
manual for specific electrical requirements for
your model. Failure to follow these instructions can
create an electrical shock hazard and/or a fire hazard.
This dryer must be plugged into a properly
grounded outlet. Electrical shock can result if the
dryer is not properly grounded. Have the wall
outlet and circuit checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the outlet is properly
grounded. Failure to follow these instructions can
create an electrical shock hazard and/or a fire hazard.
The dryer should always be plugged into it's own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage
rating that matches the rating plate. This provides
the best performance and also prevents overloading
house wiring circuits which could cause a fire hazard
from overheated wires.
Never unplug your dryer by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out
from the outlet. The power cord can be damaged,
resulting in a risk of fire and electrical shock.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do
not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion
damage along its length or at either end. The
power cord can melt, creating electrical shock and/or
fire hazard.
When installing or moving the dryer, be careful
not to pinch, crush, or damage the power cord.
This will prevent injury and prevent damage to the
dryer from fire and electrical shock.
