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 the 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.
