Review the following options to determine the appropriate electrical connection for your home:
4-wire receptacle (NEMA type14-30R)
Use the instructions under option 1 if your home homehas a 4-wire receptacle (NEMA type 14-30R).
3-wire receptacle (NEMA type10-30R)
Use the instructions under option 2 or 3 if your home has a 3-wire receptacle (NEMA type 10-30R). Use option 2 if local codes and ordinances permit the connection of a chassis ground to the neutral connector. If this is not permitted, use option 3.
Option 1: 4-wire connection with a Power supply cord.
•If your local codes or ordinances do not allow the use of a 3 wire connection, or you are installing your dryer in a mobile home, you must use a 4- wire connection.

4.Make sure that the strain relief screw is tightened
and that all terminal block nuts are tight and the
7power cord is in the right position.
Option 2: 3-Wire Connection with a Power Supply Cord
lf your local codes or ordinances permit the connection of a frame-grounding conductor to the neutral wire, use these instructions. If your local codes or ordinances do not allow the connection of a frame-grounding conductor to the neutral wire, use the instructions under Section 3: Optional
3-wire connection.
1.Connect the neutral (white or center) wire (B) to the center, silver colored, screw (A) and tighten securely.
