INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Electric requirements
Electrical connections
An individual branch (or separate) circuit serving only your dryer is recommended.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.
Electric models - U.S. only
The dryers require a 120/240 volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service. The electric
service requirements can be found on the data label located on the back of your
dryer.
A 30-ampere fuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
• You should plug the power cord into a 30-ampere receptacle.
• A power cord is NOT provided with U.S. electric model dryers.
Electric models - Canada only
You need a 120/240 volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service fused through a
30-ampere fuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line.
All Canadian models are shipped with the power cord attached. The power cord
should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
WARNING:
The wiring diagram is located on the back panel of your dryer.
• Incorrectly connecting your dryer’s grounding conductor can result in
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in
doubt as to whether your dryer is correctly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with your dryer. If the plug does not fit the outlet, have the
correct type 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.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
• 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 four-prong plug for four-wire receptacles, NEMA type
14-30R.)
