ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
I ELECTRICDryer
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.
This appliance MUST be properly grounded.
Electrical shock can result if tile dryer is not properly grounded.
Follow the instructions in this manual for proper grounding.
Do not use an extension cord with this dryer.
Someextension 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.
A U.L. approvedstrain reliefmustbe installed
onto power cord. If tile strain relief is not attached, tile 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.
NOTE: Dryersoperating on 208 volt power supplywill have longer
drying times than operating on 240 volt power supply.

_ Improper connection of tile equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a
licensedelectrician ifyou arein doubt asto whether the appliance
isproperly grounded.
Fora arounded, cord-connected dryer:
1. The dryer must be grounded. Inthe event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock
by a path of least resistance for electrical current.
Sinceyour dryer isequipped 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.
Do not modify plug provided with the appliance.
ALL GAS Dryers
Thedryer isequipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for
your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from
the plug.

accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If in doubt,
call a licensed electrician. Do not modify plug provided
with the appliance.
For a permanently connected dryer:
I. ThedryerMUSTbe connected to a grounded metal, permanent
wiring system; or an equipment grounding conductor must be
run with the circuit conductors and connected to the
equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
