Grounding Instructions
The dryer must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current. The dryer is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a three prong 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 the dryer unit-
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
If the laundry room’s electrical supply does not meet
the above specifications and/or if you are not sure the
laundry room has an effective ground, have a
qualified electrician or your local electrical utility
company check it and correct any problems.
