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.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can

result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a licensed electrician

if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly

grounded.
