INSTALLATION

Install Leveling Legs

WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install or uninstall appliance.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

1. Prepare dryer for leveling legs

Electrical Installation – U.S.A.

WARNING

To avoid damaging floor, use a large flat piece of cardboard from dryer carton; place under entire back edge of dryer.

Firmly grasp dryer body (not console panel) and gently lay dryer down on cardboard.

NOTE : Residual water from factory testing may drain when dryer is laying on its side.

2. Screw in leveling legs

Fire Hazard

For power supply cord, use a new UL listed 30 A power supply cord.

For direct wire, use 10 gauge copper wire.

Use a UL listed strain relief.

Disconnect power before making electrical connections.

Connect neutral wire (white or center wire) to center terminal (silver).

Connect ground wire (green or bare wire) to green ground connector.

Connect remaining 2 supply wires to remaining 2 terminals (gold).

Securely tighten all electrical connections.

Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

1. Disconnect power

2. Remove terminal block cover

Leveling leg with diamond marking.

Leveling leg without diamond marking

Using a wrench and tape measure, screw leveling legs into leg holes until bottom of foot is approximately 1/2" (13 mm) to

1 1/2" (38 mm) from bottom of the dryer.

For leveling legs with the diamond marking:

Screw legs into leg holes by hand. Use a wrench to finish turning legs until diamond marking is no longer visible.

Place a carton corner post from dryer packaging under each of the two dryer back corners. Stand the dryer up. Slide the dryer on the corner posts until it is close to its final location.

Leave enough room to connect the exhaust vent.

Remove hold-down screw and terminal block cover.

3. Choose electrical connection type

Power supply cord 4-wire receptacle

(NEMA Type 14-30R): Go to “4-Wire Power

Supply Cord Connection.” Then, go to

“Venting Requirements.”

Power supply cord 3-wire receptacle

(NEMA Type 10-30R): Go to “3-Wire Power

Supply Cord Connection.” Then, go to

“Venting Requirements.”

4-wire direct connection: Go to “Direct Wire

Strain Relief,” then “4-Wire Direct Wire

Connection,” then, go to “Venting

Requirements.”

3-wire direct connection: Go to “Direct Wire

Strain Relief”, then “3-Wire Direct Wire

Connection,” then, go to “Venting

Requirements.”

NOTE: If local codes do not permit connection of a cabinetground conductor to neutral wire, go to “Optional 3-wire

Connection.” This connection may be used with either a power supply cord or a direct wire connection.

Power Supply Cord Connection

Power Supply Cord Strain Relief

1. Attach power supply cord strain relief

2. Attach power supply cord to strain relief

Put power supply cord through the strain relief. Be sure that the wire insulation on the power supply cord is inside the strain relief. The strain relief should have a tight fit with the dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position. Do not further tighten strain relief screws at this point.

4-Wire Power Supply Cord Connection

IMPORTANT: A 4-wire connection is required for mobile homes and where local codes do not permit the use of 3-wire connections.

A. 4-wire receptacle (NEMA type 14-30R)

B. 4-prong plug

C. Ground prong

D. Neutral prong

E. Spade terminals with upturned ends

F. 3/4" (19 mm) UL-listed strain relief

G. Ring terminals

3. Prepare to connect neutral ground wire and neutral wire

Remove the screws from a 3/4" (19 mm) UL-listed strain relief

(UL marking on strain relief). Put the tabs of the two clamp sections (C) into the hole below the terminal block opening

(B) so that one tab is pointing up (A) and the other is pointing down (D), and hold in place. Tighten strain relief screws just enough to hold the two clamp sections (C) together.

Remove center terminal block screw (B). Remove neutral ground wire (E) from green external ground conductor screw

(A).

4. Connect neutral ground wire and neutral wire 3-Wire Power Supply Cord Connection

IMPORTANT: Use where local codes permit connecting cabinetground conductor to neutral wire.

Connect neutral ground wire (E) and neutral wire (white or center) (C) of power supply cord under center terminal block screw (B). Tighten screw.

5. Connect ground wire

3. Remove center screw

Connect ground wire (F) (green or bare) of power supply cord under green external ground conductor screw (A). Tighten screw.

6. Connect remaining wires

Remove center terminal block screw (B).

4. Connect neutral wire

Connect remaining wires under outer terminal block screws.

Tighten screws. Insert tab of terminal block cover into slot of dryer rear panel. Secure cover with hold-down screw. Now, go to “Venting Requirements.”

Connect neutral wire (white or center) (C) of power supply cord under center terminal block screw (B). Tighten screw.

5. Connect remaining wires

Connect remaining wires under outer terminal block screws.

Tighten screws. Insert tab of terminal block cover into slot of dryer rear panel. Secure cover with hold-down screw. Now, go to “Venting Requirements.”

Direct Wire Connection

Direct wire strain relief

1. Attach direct wire strain relief

For 4-wire Direct Wire Connection, continue to step 3.

4-wire direct wire connection: Go to “4-Wire Direct Wire

Connection.”

For 3-wire Direct Wire Connection, continue to step 3.

3-wire direct wire connection: Go to “3-Wire Direct Wire

Connection.”

4-Wire Direct Wire Connection

IMPORTANT: A 4-wire connection is required for mobile homes and where local codes do not permit 3-wire connections.

3. Prepare your 4-wire cable for direct connection

Unscrew the removable conduit connector (A) and any screws from a 3/4" (19 mm) UL-listed strain relief (UL marking on strain relief). Put the threaded section of the strain relief through the hole below the terminal block opening (B).

Reaching inside the terminal block opening, screw the removable conduit connector (A) onto the strain relief threads

(C) and tighten securely.

2. Attach direct wire cable to strain relief

Direct wire cable must have 5 ft. (1.52 m) of extra length so dryer may be moved if needed.

Strip 5" (127 mm) of outer covering from end of cable, leaving bare ground wire at 5" (127 mm). Cut 1 1/2" (38 mm) from remaining 3 wires. Strip insulation back 1" (25 mm). Shape ends of wires into hooks.

4. Prepare to connect neutral ground wire and neutral wire

Remove center terminal block screw (B). Remove neutral ground wire (E) from green external ground conductor screw

(A).

Put direct wire cable through the strain relief. The strain relief should have a tight fit with the dryer cabinet and be in a horizontal position. Tighten strain relief screw against the direct wire cable.

5. Connect neutral ground wire and neutral wire 3-Wire Direct Wire Connection

IMPORTANT: Use where local codes permit connecting cabinetground conductor to neutral wire.

3. Prepare your 3-wire cable for direct connection

Connect neutral ground wire (E) and place hooked end (hook facing right) of neutral wire (white or center wire) (C) of direct wire cable under center screw of terminal block (B). Squeeze hooked ends together and tighten screw.

6. Connect ground wire

Direct wire cable must have 5 ft. (1.52 m) of extra length so dryer may be moved if needed.

4. Remove center screw

Connect ground wire (green or bare) (F) of direct wire cable under green external ground conductor screw (A). Tighten screw.

7. Connect remaining wires

Remove center terminal block screw (B).

5. Connect neutral wire

Place hooked ends of remaining direct wire cable wires under outer terminal block screws (hooks facing right). Squeeze hooked ends together and tighten screws. Insert tab of terminal block cover into slot of dryer rear panel. Secure cover with hold-down screw. Now, go to “Venting

Requirements.” Place hooked end of neutral wire (white or center) (C) of direct wire cable under center terminal block screw (B).

Squeeze hooked end together. Tighten screw.
