3 #10 AWG minimum copper conductors or 120/240V 30A power supply
cord kit marked for use with dryers and provided with closed loop or
spade terminals with upturned ends (not supplied).
3-wire Connection
Not for use in Canada.
DONOTuse for Mobile Home Installations.
NOTfor use on new construction.
NOTfor use on recreational vehicles.
NOTfor use in areas where local codes prohibit grounding
through the neutral conduction.
1. Turn off the circuit breaker(s) (30 amp) or remove the
dryer's circuit fuse at the electrical box.
2. Besure the dryer cord is unplugged from the wall.
3. Remove the power cord cover located at the lower
back.
4. Install 3/4 in. UL recognized strain relief to power cord
entry hole. Bring power cord through strain relief.
5. Connect power cord as follows:
A. Connect the 2 hot lines to the outer screws of the
terminal block (marked L1 and L2).
B.Connect the neutral (white) line to the center of
the terminal block (marked N).
6. Be sure ground strap is connected to neutral (center)
terminal of block and to green ground screw on cabinet
rear.Tighten all terminal block screws (3)securely.
7. Properly secure power cord to strain relief.
8. Reinstall the cover.
JltW/_K|_l||_l_: NEVER LEAVE THE
COVER OFF OF THE TERMINAL BLOCK.
EXHAUST INFORMATION
'kWARNING -IN CANADA AND IN THE
UNITED STATES,THE REQUIRED EXHAUST DUCT
DIAMETER IS 4 in (102ram). DO NOT USE DUCT
LONGER THAN SPECIFIED IN THE EXHAUST
LENGTH TABLE.
Usingexhaust longer than specified length will:
, Increasethe drying times and the energy cost.
, Reducethe dryer life.
, Accumulate lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
The correct exhaust installation is YOURRESPONSIBILITY.
Problems due to incorrect installation are not covered by
the warranty.
Remove and discard existing plastic or metal foil transition
duct and replacewith ULlisted transition duct.
The HA×IMUM ALLOWABLE duct length and number of
bendsof the exhaust system depends upon the type of duct,
number of turns, the type of exhaust hood (wallcap),and all
conditions noted below. The maximum duct length for rigid
metal duct isshown inthe table below.

, For every extra 90° elbow, reduce the allowable vent system
length by 10 ft.
, Two 45° elbows will be treated likeone 90°elbow.
, For the side exhaust installations, add one 90° elbow to the
chart.
, The total vent system length includes all the straight portions
and elbows of the system (transition duct included).
EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK LIST
HOOD ORWALL CAP
, Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry of
birds or other wildlife.
, Termination should present minimal resistance to
the exhaust air flow and should require little or no
maintenance to prevent clogging.
, Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This
could cause lint build up.
, Wall caps must be installed at least 12in.above ground level
or any other obstruction with the opening pointeddown.
SEPARATIONOFTURNS
For best performance, separate all turns by at least 4 ft.
of straight duct, including distance between last turn and
exhaust hood.
TURNS OTHERTHAN 90°
, One turn of 450or less may be ignored.
, Two 450 turns should be treated as one 900turn.
, Eachturn over 450 should be treated as one 900turn.
