WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
When local codes allow, the electrical supply of the dryer
may be connected by means of a new power supply cord
kit, marked for use with a dryer, that is UL listed and rated
at a minimum of 120/240 volts, 30-ampere with three No.
10 copper wire conductors terminated with closed loop
terminals, open-end spade lugs with turned up ends, or
with tinned leads.
•
Do not reuse a power supply cord from an old dryer.
The power cord electric supply wiring must be retained
at the dryer cabinet with a suitable UL-listed strain
relief.
•
Grounding through the neutral conductor is prohibited
for (1) new branch-circuit installations, (2) mobile
homes, (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas where
local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral
conductor. (Use a 4-prong plug for 4 wire receptacles,
NEMA type 14-30R.)
Electric models - Canada only
•
A 240 volt, 60Hz AC approved electrical service fused through a
30-ampere fuse or circuit breaker on both sides of the line is required.
•
All Canadian models are shipped with the power cord attached. The
power cord should be plugged into a 30-ampere receptacle.
•
In Canada, you may not convert a dryer to 208 volts.
