WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in
death, fire, or electrical shock.

Do not use an extension cord.

Do not use an adapter.

Do not remove ground prong.

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 ground-
ed 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 proper-
ly 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.
