Gas Dryer Power Supply
This equipment MUST be grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing
an escape wire for the electrical current. This
unit is equipped with a cord having a ground-
ing wire with a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded.
Consult a qualified electrician or servicer if
grounding instructions are not completely un-
derstood, or if doubt exists as to whether the
equipment is properly grounded.
Do not use an extension cord. If the prod-
uct power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician install a three  slot receptacle.
This unit should be plugged into a separate 60
hertz circuit with the electrical rating as shown
on the serial plate.
Proper Grounding and Polarization for 120
VoltsWall Outlets
For the safety of our customers and the serv-
ice technician ALL gas dryers have a three!!
prong power cord and MUST be connected to
a properly polarized and grounded wall outlet.
This information was written for those who do
not understand grounding and polarization
of a wall outlet. A 120 VAC wall outlet must
always be wired as shown below.
Polarization-This means that the larger slot
must be neutral and the small slot must be hot
(live).
Mispolarized-The outlet is miswired so that the
larger slot is hot (live) and the smaller slot is
neutral.
Grounded -This means the round hole con-
nection is connected to ground through a
connection to the main power panel.
Ungrounded-The round hole connection is not
connected to a ground and/or the main power
panel.
