3-wire (if 4-wire is not available) if your home has a 3-wire receptacle (NEMA 10-30 type SRDT):

CAUTION:A 4-conductor cord shall be used when the appliance is installed in a location where grounding through the neutral

conductor is prohibited. Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations, (2) mobile homes,

(3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductors.

5.Tighten strain relief screws.

6.Be sure that noneof the wires are touching the dryer drum inside the dryer cabinet.
