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 fire hazard.

WARNING

1. 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.

2. 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 electric 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 electrical requirements in this manual for

the proper power cord to be purchased.

3. A UL 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.

4. Do not use an aluminum wire receptacle with 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

: Dryers operating on 208 Volt power supply sill have longer drying times

than operation on 240 Volt power supply.

1. Gas dryers are equipped with a factory installed three-prong 15 Amps ~120

Volts (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 this plug.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,

grounding will reduce th risk of electric shock by providing a path of least

resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a 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. This appliance must be 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.
