Important Safety Information
About Ground Wires
In the event of an electrical short circuit, a
ground wire reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current.
Standard accepted color coding for ground
wires is green or green with a yellow
stripe.
Grounding wires and wires colored like
grounding wires are NOT to be used as
current carrying conductors.
WARNING ]
To reduce the risk of fire, the dryer
MUST be exhausted to the
outdoors. DO NOT exhaust dryer air
into a window well, gas vent,
chimney or enclosed, unventilated
area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling,
crawl space under a building or
concealed space of a building.
To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT
use plastic pipe, foil pipe, or flexible
plastic pipe to exhaust the dryer.
Never install flexible duct in
concealed spaces, such as a wall or
ceiling.

• Power cord (pigtail) isnot supplied with electric dryer. Type of pigtail and
gauge of wire must conform to local codes and instructions.
Method of wiring dryer is optional and subject to local code requirements.
• Connect dryer to power supply with MAXIMUM RATED VOLTAGE listed on
the nameplate.
• Use copper wire only. Shorter than 15' (4.5 m) use 10 A.W.G. Longer than
15" (4.5 m) use 8 A.W.G.
[ WARNING I

• Observe all local codes and
ordinances.
• Disconnect electrical power to
unit before servicing.
• Ground appliance properly.
• Check with a qualified

conducting) materials.
• DO NOT modify plug on power
cord. If plug does not fit
electrical outlet, have proper
outlet installed by qualified
electrician.
• DO NOT have a fuse in the
