Grounding the gas dryer (USA
and Canada)
1. The laundry center is equipped with
a three-prong (grounding) plug
for your protection against shock
hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded
three-prong receptacle.
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
1. The laundry center MUST be
grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of
electrical shock by a path of least
resistance for electrical current.
2. Since your laundry center is
equipped with a power supply 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. If in doubt, call a
licensed electrician.
3. DO NOT modify the plug provided
with this appliance. If it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Improper grounding of the laundry
center may cause serious injury or
death. Check with a licensed electrician
if you are in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded.
