GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■  
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer: 
This 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. 
This dryer is equipped with a 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.
WARNING: 
Improper connection of the 
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of 
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service 
representative or personnel if you are in doubt as to 
whether the dryer is properly grounded. Do not modify the 
plug provided with the dryer: if it will not fit the outlet, have 
a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
