Grounding Information
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a path of least
resistance for electric current.The cord-kit must be
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided with the cord-kit - if
it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
The dryer has its own terminal block that must be
connected to a separate branch, 60 Hertz, single phase
circuit, AC (alternating current) circuit, fused at 30
Amperes (the circuit must be fused on both sides of
the line). Electrical service for the dryer should be
of maximum rated voltage (208 or 240 Volt,
depending on heating element) listed on the
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 electrical service
of different voltage than that listed on nameplate, such
as 208 Volt.
NOTE: Branch circuit wire size requirements to
laundry room outlet are shown in Table 4.
The power cord connection between wall receptacle
and dryer terminal block IS NOT supplied with
dryer. Type of power cord and gauge of wire must
conform to local codes.
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you are in
doubt as to whether the dryer is properly
grounded.
