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 the 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.

1.size of the conductors and the type of cord.

2.3/4” (1.9 cm) UL-listed strain relief
