STEP 3. Attach a 3/4-inch, U.L.-listed, strain relief to the hole below terminal block opening. Strain relief should have a tight fit with dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position. Put the power supply cord through the strain relief.

STEP 4. Loosen or remove terminal block screws. Connect the neutral wire (white

or center) of power supply cord under the center screw of the terminal block.

STEP 5. Connect the other two wires to outer terminal block screws. Tighten all terminal block screws firmly.

CONNECTION (DIRECT WIRE) Prepare cable as directed:

Electrical Shock Hazard

Turn power supply off before connecting wires.

Use 10 gauge solid copper wire. Electrically ground dryer.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

The dryer can be connected directly to fused disconnect or circuit breaker

box with three-wire,flexible armored or non-metallic sheathed copper cable (with grounding wire). All current-carrying wires must be insulated.

S'FEP6. Tighten the strain relief screws.

STEP 7. Insert tab of terminal block

cover into slot of the dryer rear panel. Secure cover with hold-down screw.

If local codes do not permit the connection of a frame-groundingconductor to the neutral wire, see

the instructions on page 15.

Otherwise, proceed with Exhaust Installation. See "CONNECT

EƗHAUST" on page 19.

A conduit connector must be installed at junction box. Allow four feet of slack in the line so dryer can be moved if servicing

is ever necessary.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring

system; or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit

conductors and connected to the equipment-groundingterminal or lead on the appliance.

STEP 1. Turn power supply off.

STEP la. Strip 31/2 inches of outer covering from end of cable. If using

3-wire cable with grounding wire, cut the bare wire even with outer covering.
