ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
ELECTRIC Dryer
CIRCUIT - individual 30 amp. branch circuit fused with 30 amp, minimum time delay fuses or circuit breaker.
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<onductor
power supply cord NEMA 10-30 type SRDT rated at 240 volt AC
minimum, 30 amp., with S open end spade lug connedors with upturned ends or closed loop connectors OR a 4<onductor 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.
If being installed in a new branch circuit installation, manufactured (mobile) home, recreational vehicle or area which prohibits grounding
through the neutral conductor, the dryer MUST employ a 4<onductor
power supply cord NEMA 14-€0 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 CONNECTIONS for additional
instructions.
CANADA - A 4 wire power cord is installed on dryer,
OUTLET RECEPTACLE - NEMA 10-30R (3-wire) receptacle or NEMA 14-
:_0R (4-wire) receptacle to be located so the power supply cord is accessible when the dryer is in the installed position
NEMA 10-30R NEMA 14-30R
I GAS Dryer
CiRCUiT - Individual 15 amp. branch circuit fused with a 15 amp. maximum time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
POWER SUPPLY - 3 wire, 120 volt single phase, 60 Hz, Alternating Current.
POWER SUPPLY CORD - The dryer is equipped with a 120 volt 3-wire
power cord,
Use separately fused circuits for washers and dryers, and DO NOT operate a washer and a dryer on the same circuit.
NOTE: Do not under any circumstances remove
grounding prong from plug.
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 ol insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the outlet, maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance between the vent hood and the ground or any other
obstruction,
and safe operation of your dryer. Failure to follow these
instructions can create excessive drying times and fire hazards.
Excessive lint can build up inside exhaust system and create a fire hazard and restrict air flow. Restricted air flow will increase dryer times. If your present system is made up of plastic duct or metal foil duct, replace it with a rigid or flexible metal duct. Ensure the present duct is free of
any tint prior to installing dryer duct.
lint will be expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any area of the home can create a heakh and fire hazard. The dryer exhaust system MUST be exhausted to the outside of the dwelling!

nor use any screws or Hvets to assemble the exhaust system. Lint car/ become caught in the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work and creating a fire hazard as well as increasing drying times. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors, and seal all
joints with duct tape All male duct pipe fittings MUST be installed
downstream with the flow of air,
_r__ Explosion hazard. Do not install the dryer where gasofine 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,

4. ThesystembackpressureMUST NOT be higher than 0.75 inches of
water column, if the system back pressure is less than 0.75 inches of water column, the system is acceptabb. 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 system through an u/finsulated 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 I8 months 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. Howevel, 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 or the bottom of the dryer. Directional exhausting can be accomplished by installing Exhaust Kit, P/N
131456800, available through your parts distributor. Follow the
instructions supplied with the kit.
EXHAUST DUCT LOCATtNG DiMENSiONS
LOCATION OF YOUR DRYER
DO NOT INSTALL YOUR DRYER:
1. In an area exposed to dripping water or outside weather conditions. 2, In an area where it will come in contact with curtains, drapes, or
anything that will obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air,
3, On carpet, Floor MUST be solid with a maximum slope of 1 inch (2.54
cm).
iNSTALLATION IN RECESS OR CLOSET 1, A dryer instalk_d in a bedroom, bathroom, recess or closet, MUST be
exhausted outdoors.
2, No other fuel burning appliance shall be installed in the same closet
as the Gas dryer.
:L Your dryer needs the space around it for proper ventilation.
DO NOT instafl your dryer in a closet with a sofid door.
4, A minimum of 120 square inches (774,2 square cm) of opening,
equally divided at the top and bottom of the door, is required. Air openings are required to be unobstructed when a door is installed. A Iouvered door with equivalent air openings for the full length of the door is acceptable.
