Electrical Requirements for Electric Models Only
This dryer 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-grounding 
terminal or lead on the dryer. Failure to do  
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
The dryer has its own terminal block that 
must be connected to a separate 240 VAC, 
60-Hertz, single-phase circuit, fused at 30 
amperes (the circuit must be fused on both 
sidesoftheline).ELECTRICALSERVICE

NAMEPLATE. DO NOT CONNECT DRYER TO 
110-, 115-, OR 120-VOLT CIRCUIT. Heating 
elements are available for field installation 
in dryers which are to be connected to an 
electrical service of a different voltage than 
that listed on the rating plate. Failure to follow 
these instructions can result in fire, explosion, 
or death.
If branch circuit to dryer is 15 ft. (4.5 m) 
or less in length, use UL (Underwriters 
Laboratories) listed No.-10 AWG wire 
(copper wire only), or as required by local 
codes. If over 15 ft. (4.50 m), use UL-listed 
No.-8 AWG wire (copper wire only), or as 
required by local codes. Allow sufficient 
slack in wiring so dryer can be moved from 
its normal location when necessary. Failure 
to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
The power cord (pigtail) connection between 
wall receptacle and dryer terminal block 
ISNOTsuppliedwithdryer.Typeofpigtail
and gauge of wire must conform to local 
codes and with instructions on the following 
pages. Failure to follow these instructions can 
result in fire, explosion, or death.
A 4-wire connection is required for all mobile 
and manufactured home installations, as 
well as all new construction after January 
1, 1996. A 4-wire connection must be used 
where local codes do not permit grounding 
through the neutral wire. Failure to do so can 
result in fire, explosion, or death.
Special Electrical Requirements for Mobile or Manufactured Homes
•  Any installation in a manufactured or mobile 
home must comply with the Manufactured 
Home Construction and Safety Standards 
Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 or Standard CAN/
CSA0Z240 MH and local codes and ordinances.
 
A 4-wire connection is required for all mobile
