INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS - GAS DRYER
Electrical Installation
The following are specific requirements for proper and safe
electrical installation of your dryer. Failure to follow these
instructions can create electrical shock and/or a fire hazard.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
• A U.L.-approved strain relief must be installed onto
power cord. If the strain relief is not attached, the cord
can be pulled out of the dryer and can be cut by any
movement of the cord, resulting in electrical shock.
• Do not use an aluminum wired receptacle with a
copper wired power cord and plug (or vice versa). A
chemical reaction occurs between copper and
aluminum and can cause electrical shorts. The proper
wiring and receptacle is a copper wired power cord
with a copper wired receptacle.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
• This appliance MUST be properly grounded. Electrical
shock can result if the dryer is not properly grounded.
Follow the instructions in this manual for proper
grounding.
• Do not use an extension cord with this dryer. Some
extension cords are not designed to withstand the
amounts of electrical current this dryer utilizes
and can melt, creating electrical shock and/
or fire hazard. Locate the dryer within reach of
the receptacle for the length power cord to be
purchased, allowing some slack in the cord. Refer to the
pre-installation requirements in this manual for the
proper power cord to be purchased.
Grounding requirements - Gas dryer (USA and Canada)
1 The dryer 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.
2 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.
