Read the "Dryer Safety" section of this Owner's Manual and completely read these Installation Instructions before beginning installation.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

•The dryer must not be installed where it can be exposed to water and/or weather.

•Check code requirements. Some codes limit or do not permit installation of clothes dryers in garages, closets, mobile homes, or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.

Tools needed for installation:

Level

A three-wire or four-wire, single phase 120!240-volt, 60-Hz., AC-only, electrical supply is required on a separate 30-ampere circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.

This dryer is manufactured with the 3-wire, flame-ground- ing conductor connected to the NEUTRAL (center) of the wiring harness of the terminal block. Do not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.

Use a 4-conductor cord when the dryer is installed in a mobile home or an area where local codes do not permit grounding through the neutral.
