WARNING
•
The improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can
result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician
or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether your dryer is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with your dryer - if it
doesn't fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with
local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 - Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or
the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 - Latest Revisions and local
codes and ordinances. It is your responsibility to provide adequate
electrical services for your dryer.

Fuel Code ANSI/Z2231 - Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or CAN/CGA
