ELECTRIC REQUIREMENTS
The wiring diagram is located on the back board of the unit.
WARNING
The improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can
result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician
or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether your dryer is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with your dryer - if it
doesn’t fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
To prevent unnecessary risk of fire, electrical shock, or personal
injury, all wiring and grounding must be done in accordance with
local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70 - Latest Revision (for the U.S.) or
the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1 - Latest Revisions and local
codes and ordinances. It is your responsibility to provide adequate
electrical services for your dryer.
Electrical connections
An individual branch (or separate) circuit serving only your dryer is
r
ecommended. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
When local codes allow, the electrical supply of the dryer
may be connected by means of a new power supply cord
kit, marked for use with a dryer, that is UL listed and rated
at a minimum of 120/240 volts, 30-ampere with three No.
10 copper wire conductors terminated with closed loop
terminals, open-end spade lugs with turned up ends, or
with tinned leads.
Do not reuse a power supply cord from an old dryer.
The power cord electric supply wiring must be retained
at the dryer cabinet with a suitable UL-listed strain
relief.
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
conductor. (Use a 4-prong pl
ug for 4 wire receptacles,
NEMA type 14-30R.)
Electric models - Canada only
A 120/240 volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service fused through a
30-ampere fuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
All Canadian models are shipped with the power cord attached. The
power cord should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
