SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS FOR CONNECTING ELECTRiCiTY
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
its 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.
