Installation requirements
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.
Gas models – U.S. and Canada
A 120 volt, 60 Hz AC approved electrical service with a 15-ampere fuse or circuit breaker
is required.
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.
• The power cord is not provided with U.S. electric model dryers. This cord is sold
separately.
Risk of Electric Shock
WARNING
When local codes allow, you can connect the dryer’s electrical supply with a new power
supply cord kit, marked for use with a dryer, that is U.L. listed and rated at a minimum of
120 / 240 volts, 30-amperes 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 supported at the dryer cabinet by 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 plug for a
4 wire receptacle, NEMA type 14-30R.)
Electric models – Canada Only
A 120 / 240 volt, 60 Hz AC approved electrical service fused through a 30-ampere fuse or
circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
NOTE
All Canadian models are shipped with the power cord attached. The power cord should
be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle. In Canada, you may convert a dryer to
120 / 208 volts.
