ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

j ELECTRICDryer

CIRCUIT- Individual 30 amp. branch circuit fused with 30 amp. time delay fuses or circuit breakers.

Use separately fused circuits for washers and dryers, and DO

NOT operate a washer and a dryer on the same circuit.

EXHA US T SYS TEM REQ UIREMENTS

Use only 4 inch (10.2 cm) diameter (minimum) rigid or flexible metal duct and approved vent hood which has a swing-out damper(s) that open when the dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops, the dampers automatically close to prevent drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents. Toavoid restricting the outlet, maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance between the vent hood and the ground or anyother obstruction.

POWER SUPPLY- 3 wire or 4-wire, 240 volt, single phase, 60 Hz, Alternating Current.

POWER SUPPLY CORD KIT - The dryer MUST employ a 3- conductor power supply cord NEMA 10-30 type SRDTrated at 240 volt AC minimum, 30 amp., with 3 open end spade lug connectors with upturned ends or closed loop connectors and marked for use with clothes dryers.

WARNING - Risk of Shock. Appliance grounded to neutral conductor through a link. Grounding through the neutral link is prohibited for (1) New branch circuit installations (2) mobile

homes; (3) recreational vehicles; and (4) areaswhere local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral, (1) disconnect the

link from the neutral, (2) use grounding terminal or lead to ground appliance in accordance with local codes and (3) connect

neutral terminal or lead to branch circuit neutral in usual manner (if the appliance is to be connected by means of a cord kit, use

4-conductor cord for this purpose). USECOPPERCONDUCTOR ONLY. The dryer MUST employ a 4-conductor power supply cord NEMA 14-30 type SRDT or ST(as required) rated at 240 volt AC minimum, 30 amp., with 4 open end spade lug connectors with upturned ends or closed loop connectors and marked for use with clothes dryers. See ELECTRICAL

CONNECTIONSFORA 4-WIRE SYSTEM. (Canada - 4-wire power supply cord is installed on dryer.)

The following are specific requirements for

proper and safe operation of your dryer. Failure to follow these instructions can create excessive drying times and

fire hazards.

Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible

plastic venting materials. If your present system is made up

of plastic duct or metal foil duct, replace it with a rigid or flexible metal duct. In Canada and the United States if metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must be of a specific type identified by the appliance manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes dryers and in the United States must also comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Duct, UL standard 2158A. Flexible venting materials are known to collapse, be easily crushed and trap lint. Theseconditions will obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increaseth e risk of fire. Ensure the present duct is free of

any lint prior to installing dryer duct.

OUTLET RECEPTACLE- NEMA 10-30R receptacle to be located

so the power supply cord isaccessible when the dryer is inthe installed position. (Canada - NEMA 14-30R receptacle.)

NEMA 10-30R NEMA 14-30R

- Risk of Fire - A clothes dryer must be

exhausted outdoors. Do not exhaust dryer into a chimney, a wall, a ceilinq, an attic, a crawl space or any concealed space

of a building A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. If the dryer is not exhausted outdoors, some fine lint will be expelled

into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of the home can create a health and fire hazard. The dryermust be

connected to an exhaust outdoors. Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and remove any accumulation of lint

around the outdoor exhaust opening and in the surrounding area.

Do not allow combustible materials (for

example: clothing, draperies/curtains, paper) to come in contact with exhaust system. The dryer MUST NOT be

exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, or any concealed space of a building which can accumulate lint, resulting in a fire

hazard.

Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number

of elbows allowed in the "MAXIMUM LENGTH" charts can

cause an accumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Plugging the system could create a fire hazard, aswell as increase drying

times.

Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent

system, nor use any screws, rivets or other fastening means

that extend into the duct and catch lint to assemble the

exhaust system. Lint can become caught in the screen, on the screwsor rivets, clogging the duct work and creating afire hazard aswell as increasing drying times. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors, and sealalljoints with duct tape. All male duct pipe fittings MUST be installed downstream with

the flow of air.

Explosion hazard. Do not install the dryer

where gasoline or other flammables are kept or stored. If

the dryer is installed in a garage, it must be a minimum of 18 inches (45.7 cm) above the floor. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, fire or burns.

I. Connect an inclined or digital manometer between the

dryer and the point the exhaust connects to the dryer.

2. Setthe dryer timer and temperature to air fluff (cool down) and start the dryer.

3. Readthe measurement on the manometer.

4. The system back pressure MUSTNOTbe higherthan

0.75 inches of water column. If the system back pressure is lessthan 0.75 inches of water column, the system is acceptable. If the manometer reading is higher than 0.75 inches of water column, the system is too restrictive and the installation is unacceptable.

Although vertical orientation of the exhaust system is acceptable, certain extenuating circumstances could affect the performance of the dryer:

• Only the rigid metal duct work should be used.

• Venting vertical through a roof may expose the exhaust system to down drafts causing an increase in vent

restriction.

• Running the exhaust systemthrough an uninsulated area may cause condensation and faster accumulation

of lint.

• Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will cause an increase in vent restriction.

The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a minimum of every 18months with normal usage. The more the dryer is used, the more often you should check the exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.

EXHAUST DIRECTION

All dryers shipped from the factory are set up for rear exhausting. However, on electric dryers, exhausting can be to the right or left side of the cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. On gas dryers, exhausting can be to the right side of the cabinet orthe bottom of the dryer. Directional exhausting can beaccomplished by installing Exhaust Kit, P/N 131456800, available through your parts distributor. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.
