Electrical Requirements

If is your responsibility:

[] To contact a qualified electrical installer. [] To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in

conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70

- latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

The National Electrical Code requires a 4-wire power supply

connection for homes built after 1996, dryer circuits involved in

remodeling after 1996, and all mobile home installations.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park,

Quincy, MA 02269. [] To supply the required 3 or 4 wire, single phase, 120/240 volt,

60 Hz, AC only electrical supply (or 3 or 4 wire, 120/208 volt

electrical supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) on

a separate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A

time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. Connect to

an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in the neutral

or grounding circuit. [] Do not use an extension cord.

[] If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualified electrician determine that

the ground path is adequate.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your dryer, you must determine the type of electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions provided for it here.

[] If local codes do not permit the connection of a neutral ground

wire to the neutral wire, see "Optional 3-wire connection" section.

[] This dryer is manufactured ready to install with a 3-wire

electrical supply connection. The neutral ground wire is permanently connected to the neutral conductor (white wire) within the dryer. If the dryer is installed with a 4-wire electrical supply connection, the neutral ground wire must be removed from the external ground connector screw (green screw), and secured under the neutral terminal (center or white wire) of the terminal block. When the neutral ground wire is secured under the neutral terminal (center or white wire) of the terminal block, the dryer cabinet is isolated from the neutral conductor.

[] A 4-wire power supply connection must be used when the

dryer is installed in a location where grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited. Grounding through the neutral 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.

If using a power supply cord: Use a UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with

clothes dryers. The kit should contain: [] A UL listed 30-amp power supply cord, rated 120/240 volt

minimum. The cord should be type SRD or SRDT and be at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long. The wires that connect to the dryer must end in ring terminals or spade terminals with upturned ends.

[] A UL listed strain relief.

If your outlet looks llke this:

Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord

with ring or spade terminals and UL listed

strain relief. The 4-wire power supply cord,

at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have

4 10-gauge solid copper wires and match

4-wire receptacle (14-30R)

a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-30 R.

The ground wire (ground conductor) may be

either green or bare. The neutral conductor

must be identified by a white cover.

If your outlet looks like this:

Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord with ring or spade terminals and UL listed strain relief. The 3-wire power supply cord, at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have 3 10-gauge solid copper wires and match a 3-wire receptacle of

3-wire receptacle

NEMA Type 10-30R.

(70-30R)

If connecting by direct wire: Power supply cable must match power supply (4-wire or 3-wire)

and be: [] Flexible armored cable or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable

(with ground wire), covered with flexible metallic conduit. All

current-carrying wires must be insulated. [] 10-gauge solid copper wire (do not use aluminum). [] At least 5 ft. (1.52 m) long.

GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS

[] For a grounded, cord-connected dryer: This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or

breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This dryer uses a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a 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:

This dryer must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding

conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on

the dryer.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative

or personnel ifyou are in doubt as to whether the dryer is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug on the power supply cord: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS

Screw in leveling legs

Using a wrench and tape measure, screw legs into leg holes until bottom of foot is approximately 11/2"(38 mm) from

bottom of dryer.

Now stand the dryer on its legs. SHde the dryer until it is close to its final location. Leave enough room for electrical connection and to connect the exhaust vent.
