BEFORE OPERATING OR TESTING, follow the grounding instructions in the “Grounding” section on page 16.

U.S. MODELS:

WARNING RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - All U.S. models are produced for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM

CONNECTION.

The dryer frame is grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block.

A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION is required for new or remodeled construction, mobile homes, or if local codes do not permit grounding through neutral. If the 4-wire system is used, the dryer frame cannot be grounded to the neutral conductor at the terminal block. Refer to the following instructions for 3 and 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS.

Remove the terminal block cover plate.

Insert the power cord with a UL-listed strain relief through the hole provided in the cabinet near the terminal block.

A strain relief must be used.

Do not loosen the nuts already installed on the terminal block. Be sure they are tight. Use a 3/8” (1 cm) deep well socket.

6.Review the “Gas requirements” section on page 15. Remove the pipe thread protective cap. Apply a pipe joint compound or about 1 1/2 wraps of Tefl on tape over all threaded connections.

The pipe joint compound must be resistant to the actions of any liquefi ed petroleum gas.

Connect the gas supply to your dryer. An additional fi tting is required to connect the 3/4” (1.9 cm) female thread end of a fl exible connector to the 3/8” (1 cm) male threaded end on the dryer.

Securely tighten the gas line fi tting over the threads. Turn on the gas supply.

Check all gas connections for leaks using a soap solution.

If bubbles appear, tighten the connections and recheck. DO NOT use an open fl ame to check for gas leaks.
