Electrical Shock Hazard

. Electrical ground Is required on this appliance.

. If cold water pipe Is interrupted by plastic, non-metallic gaskets, or other insulating materials, Do Not use for grounding.

. Do Not ground to a gas pipe.

. Do Not modify the power supply cord plugs. iflplugs will not fit the outlets, have proper outlets installed by a qualified electrician.

. Use new 30-ampere power supply cord kits. Do Not reuse old power supply cords. Possible electrical shock or fire could occur if old power supply cords are used.

. Do Not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit. A fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit could result in an electrical shock.

. Do Not use an extension cord with this appliance.

. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

.1Do Not plug the power supply cords (pigtails) into a live wail receptacle before connecting the pigtails to the dryer terminal blocks. Read ‘Direct

wiring connectton’. Pages 4 and 5 for detailed instructions.
