INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Gas models - U.S. and Canada
A 120-volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service, with a 15 ampere fuse or circuit
breaker is required.
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 behind the door. A
30-ampere fuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
• If you use a power cord, you should plug the 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.
Power outlet types
Using a three-wire outlet
If your outlet is a three-wire (three-prong) outlet, choose a three-wire power
supply cord with ring or spade terminals and UL listed strain relief. The three-wire
power supply cord must:
• Be at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long.
• Have three 10-gauge solid copper wires.
• Match a three-wire outlet of NEMA Type 10-30R.
See Step-by-step instructions
on page 22 for instructions on how to connect a
power cord to your dryer.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
When local codes allow, the electrical supply of your 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.)
