To reduce the risk of fi re, 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 specifi c electrical requirements for your model. 

Failure to follow these instructions can create an 

electrical shock hazard and/or a fi re 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 qualifi ed electrician to make sure the 

outlet is properly grounded. Failure to follow these 

instructions can create an electrical shock hazard 

and/or a fi re 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 fi re hazard from 

overheated wires.

• Never unplug your dryer by pulling on the power 

cord. Always grip the plug fi rmly and pull straight 

out from the outlet. The power cord can be damaged, 

resulting in a risk of fi re 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 fi re 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 

fi re and electrical shock.
