WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a licensed electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:

1The dryer MUST be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce

the risk of electrical shock by a path of least resistance for electrical current.

2Since your dryer is equipped with a power supply 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 accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If in doubt, call a licensed electrician.

DO NOT modify the plug you’ve installed on this appliance.
