02 INSTALLATION Important to installer Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions should be kept for future reference. WARNING: Remove the door from all discarded appliances to avoid the danger of a child being trapped and suffocating. Basic requirements Make sure you have everything necessary for the proper installation • A GROUNDED ELECTRICAL OUTLET is required. • A POWER CORD electric dryer (except for Canada). • GAS LINES (if a gas dryer) must meet national and local codes. • The EXHAUST SYSTEM must be made of rigid metal or flexible stiff-walled metal exhaust ducting. Grounding This dryer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding the product will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electrical current. Gas models Your dryer has a cord with 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. • 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. • Never connect the ground wire to the plastic plumbing lines, gas lines, or hot water pipes. Electric models Your dryer has an optional cord with an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug, which is sold separately. • The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. • 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. • If a power cord is not used and the electric dryer is to be permanently wired, the dryer must be connected to a permanently grounded metal 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 dryer.
