kWA I G
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE,
ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND PERSONAL
INJURY:
• DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
Electrical OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS
Shock Hazard APPLIANCE.
Dryer must be electrically grounded in accordance with local
codes and ordinances, or in the absence of local codes, in
accordance with the NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA
NO. 70. or Canadian Electrical Code,CSA C22.!
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS:
This dryer must be connected to an individual branch circuit,
protected bg the required time-delay fuses or circuit breakers.
A four or three-wire, single phase, !20/240V or !20/208V, 60Hz,
30 amp circuit is required. If the electric supply does not meet
the above specifications, then call a licensed electrician.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
For a grounded, cord-connected drger: This dryer
must be grounded. In the event of u malfunction or breakdown,
grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock bg providing
u path of least resistance for electric current. This dryer uses
u cord having an equipment grounding conductor and u
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
For a permanently connected dryer: Thisdryer must
be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system,
or an equipment grounding conductor must be run with the
circuit conductors end connected to the equipment grounding
terminal on the appliance.
,AWA I G
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor
can result in u risk of electric shock. Check with u qualified
electrician or service representative or personnel if you are
in doubt us to whether the appliance is properly grounded.
DONOTmodify the plug on the power supply cord. If it will
not fit the outlet, have u proper outlet installed by u qualified
electrician.

, In special installations, it may be necessary to connect
the dryer to the house vent using a flexible metal (foil-

be used ONLYin installations where rigid metal or flexible
metal (semi-rigid) ducting cannot be used AND where a 4"
diameter can be maintained throughout the entire length
of the transition duct.
- In Canada and the United States, only the flexible metal
(foil-type) ducts that comply with the "Outline for Clothes

[] CONNECTING INLET HOSES
(onsome models)
To produce steam, the dryer must connect to the cold
water supply. Since the washer must also connect to the
cold water, a "Y" connector isinserted to allow both inlet
hoses to make that connection at the same time.
NOTE:Use the new inlet hoses provided; never
use old hoses.
1.Turn the cold water faucet off. Remove the washer inlet
hose from the washer fill valve connector (cold).
2. Ensurethe rubber flat washer is in place and screw the
female coupling of the short hose onto the washer fill
valve connector. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.
3.Attach the female end of the "Y" connector to the
male coupling of the short hose. Ensurethe rubber flat
washer is in place. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.

\
4. Insert the filter screen in the coupling of the washer's
inlet hose. If a rubber fiat washer isolreudy in place
remove it before installing the filter screen. Attach this
coupling to one male end of the "Y" connector. Tighten
by hand until firmly seated.
5. Ensurethe rubber flat washer is in place and attach the
dryer's long inlet hose to the other male end of the "Y"
connector. Tighten by hand until firmly seated.
6. Ensurethe rubber flat washer is in place and attach
the other end of the dryer's long inlet hose to the fill
valve connector at the bottom of the dryer back panel.
Tighten by hand until firmly seated.
[] CONNECTING INLET HOSES (cont.)
7. Using pliers, tighten all the couplings with an additional
two-thirds turn.
NOTE:Do not overtighten. Damage to the couplings may
result.
8.Turn the water faucet on.
9. Check for leaks around the "Y"connector, faucet and
hose couplings.
WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
