ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

■ A 120 volt, 60 Hz., AC only, 15- or 20-amp, fused electrical

supply is required. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker on

a separate circuit serving only this washer is recommended.

■ This washer is equipped with a power supply cord having

a 3-prong grounding plug.

■ To minimize possible shock hazard, the cord must be

plugged into a mating, 3-prong, grounding-type outlet,

grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

If a mating outlet is not available, it is the personal

responsibility and obligation of the customer to have the

properly grounded outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

■ If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualied electrician determine that

the ground path is adequate.

■ Do not ground to a gas pipe.

■ Check with a qualied electrician if you are not sure

the washer is properly grounded.

■ Do not have a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit.
