6.5.1 Grounding Requirements -
Electric Dryer (Canada)
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
1. The Laundry Center MUST be grounded. In the event
of a malfunction or breakdown, the grounding will reduce
the risk of electrical shock by a path of least resistance for
electrical current.
2. Since your Laundry Center is equipped with a power
supply cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
a grounding plug, insert the plug into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. If in doubt, call a licensed
electrician.
3. DO NOT modify the plug provided with this appliance.
If it does not fit the outlet, a qualified electrician must install
the proper outlet.
6.5.2 Grounding Requirements -
Gas Dryer (USA and Canada)
1. The Laundry Center is equipped with a 3-prong
(grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard
and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded
3-prong receptacle.
2. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. If in doubt, call a licensed
electrician.
3. DO NOT modify the plug provided with this appliance.
If it does not fit the outlet, a qualified electrician must install
the proper outlet.
