installing your dryer

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.

IMPORTANT:

When local codes allow, the dryer electrical supply may be connected by means of a new power supply cord kit, marked for use with a dryer, that is U.L. listed and rated at a minimum of120/240 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 4-prong plug for 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.

•All Canadian models are shipped with the power cord attached. The power cord should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
