ELECTRIC DRYER ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

IMPORTANT: A 4-wire connection is required where local codes do
not permit the use of 3-wire connections.
Direct wire cable must have 5 ft. (1.52 m) of extra length so dryer
can be moved if needed.
Strip 5" (127 mm) of outer covering from end of cable, leaving bare
ground wire at 5" (127 mm). Cut 1⁄" (38 mm) from three remaining
wires. Strip insulation back 1" (25 mm). Shape ends of wires into a
hook shape.

terminal block screw (B). Squeeze hooked end together.
Tighten screw.
