Electrical requirements
The wiring diagram is located on the plate under the control panel or rear frame.
WARNING
• Improperly connecting the equipment grounding conductor can result in a 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, in accordance 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 service for your dryer.
Grounding
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, the ground will reduce the risk of
electrical shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electrical current.
Electric models
WARNING
• Your dryer has an optional cord with an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. This
cord is sold separately.
• The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• 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.
• If a power cord is not used and the electric dryer is to be permanently wired, the dryer must be
connected to a permanently grounded metal 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.
Electrical connections
Before operating or testing, follow all grounding instructions in the “Grounding” section. An individual
branch (or separate) circuit serving only your dryer is recommended.
Do not use an extension cord.

Electric models – U.S. only
Most U.S. dryers require a 120 / 240 volt, 60 Hz AC approved electrical service. Some require 120 / 208 volt,
60 Hz approved electrical service. The electric service requirements can be found on the data label located
behind the door. A 30-ampere fuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
• If a power cord is used, the cord should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
