UNPACKING
1. Using the four shipping carton corner posts (two on each
side), carefully lay the dryer on its left side and remove the
foam shipping base.
To prevent damage, do not use the control
panel as a means to pick up or move the dryer.

level on top of the dryer. The dryer MUST be level and
resting solid on all four legs.
3. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet. NOTE: Check
to ensure the power is off at circuit breaker/fuse box before
plugging the power cord into the outlet.
4. Turn on the power at the circuit breaker/fuse box.
Before operating the dryer, make sure the
dryer area is clear and free from combustible materials,
gasoline, and other flammable vapors. Also see that noth-
