Additional grounding procedure

-

Some local regulations may

require a separate ground. In such

cases, the required accessory

ground wire, clamp and screw

must be purchased separately.

-

Never ground the dryer to plastic

plumbing lines, gas lines or water

pipes.

Grounding instruction

This appliance must be grounded. In

the event of a malfunction or

breakdown, grounding will reduce the

risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance for the electric

current.

For Canada the dryer comes with a

cord which has an equipment

grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into an

appropriate outlet which has been

properly installed and grounded in

accordance with all local regulations

and ordinances.

Improper connection of the

equipment grounding conductor

may result in electric shock.

Have the appliance checked by

a qualified electrician or service

technician if you are in doubt as

to whether the dryer has been

properly grounded.
