It is your responsibility
•
To contact a qualified electrical installer.
•
To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in
conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association,
One Batterymarch
Park,
Quincy, MA 02269.
•
To supply the required 3 or 4 wire, single phase, 120/240-volt,
60-Hz., AC-only electrical supply (or 3 or 4 wire, 120/208-volt
electrical supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) on a
separate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A
time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
Connect
to an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in the
neutral or grounding circuit.
•
Do not use an extension cord.
•
If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended
that a qualified electrician determine that the
ground path is adequate.
Electrical
Connection
To properly install your washer/dryer, you must determine the type
of electrical connection you will be using and follow the
instructions provided for it here.
•
This dryer is manufactured ready to install with a 3-wire
electrical supply connection. The green cabinet-grounding
conductor is permanently connected to the neutral conductor
(white wire) within the dryer. If the dryer is installed with a
4-wire electrical supply connection, the green cabinet-
grounding conductor must be removed from the external
ground connector (green screw), and secured under the
neutral terminal (center or white wire) of the terminal block.
When the green cabinet-grounding
conductor is secured
under the neutral terminal (center or white wire) of the terminal
block, the dryer cabinet is isolated from the neutral conductor.
•
If local codes do not permit the connection of a cabinet
ground connector to the neutral wire, see "Optional 3-wire
connection"
section.
•
Use a 4-wire conductor
cord when the dryer is installed in a
mobile home or an area where local codes do not permit
grounding through the neutral.
If using a power supply cord:
Use a UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with clothes
dryers. The kit should contain:
4-wire receptacle
(14-30R)
Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord with ring or spade
terminals and UL listed strain relief. The 4-wire power supply cord,
at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long, must have 4, 10-gauge copper wires
and match a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 14-30R. The ground
wire (ground conductor) may be either green or bare. The neutral
conductor must be identified by a white cover.
If your outlet looks like this:
3-wire receptacle (10-30R)
Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord with ring or spade
terminals and UL listed strain relief. The 3-wire power supply cord,
at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long, must have 3, 10-gauge copper wires
and match a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-30R.
If connecting
by direct wire:
Power supply cable must match power supply (4-wire or 3-wire)
and be:
•
Flexible armored cable or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable
(with ground wire), protected with flexible metallic conduit. All
current-carrying
wires must be insulated.
•
10-gauge solid copper wire (do not use aluminum).
•
At least 5 ft (1.52 m) long.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
[]
For a grounded, cord-connected
washer/dryer:
This washer/dryer must be grounded. Hnthe event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. This washer/dryer uses a cord having an
equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with alI local
codes and ordinances.
[]
For a permanently connected washer/dryer:
This washer/dryer must be connected to a grounded metal,
permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding
conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and
connected to the equipment-grounding
terminal or lead on
the washer/dryer.
WARNING-"
Hmproper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or
personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the washer/dryer
is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug on the power
supply cord: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
