NOTE:
The electrical supply for the dryer must conform with local codes and
ordinances and the latest edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
•
If the electrical supply available in the intended dryer location does not meet the
above requirements, contact a licensed electrician.
•
A dryer operating on a 208 volt power supply will have longer drying times than if
it were operating on a 240 volt power supply.
•
The dryer is not equipped with a power cord. A kit that meets local electrical
codes must be purchased separately. The dryer can be
fi
tted with a 3 or
4-wire NEMA 14-30 or 10-30 type SRDT or ST (as required) power cord rated
at 120/240 volt AC minimum, 30 amp, with 3 open-end spade lug connectors
with upturned ends or closed loop connectors and marked for use with clothes
dryers.
•
A UL listed strain relief must be attached to the dryer to hold the power cord.
•
Do not use an aluminum wire receptacle with copper-wired power cord and plug
(or vice versa). The proper wiring and receptacle is a copper-wired power cord
with a copper-wired receptacle.
•
The electrical outlet should be located so that the power cord is accessible when
the dryer is in the installed position.
ELECTRIC DRYER (CANADA ONLY)
WARNING
The dryer must be connected to a properly grounded 4-wire, single
phase, 120/240 volt, 60Hz, AC-only electrical supply on a separate
30-amp circuit, fused with 30-amp time-delay fuses or circuit breakers.
Use separately fused circuits for washers and dryers, and do not
operate a washer and dryer on the same circuit.
WARNING
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an
escape route for the electrical current.
NOTE:
The electrical service to the dryer must conform with local codes and
ordinances and the latest edition of the CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1.
•
If the electrical supply available in the intended dryer location does not meet the
above requirements, contact a licensed electrician.
•
Do not use an aluminum wire receptacle with copper-wired power cord and plug
(or vice versa). The proper wiring and receptacle is a copper-wired power cord
with a copper-wired receptacle.
•
The electrical outlet should be located so that the power cord is accessible when
the dryer is in the installed position.
