SWING
Your dryer isdesigned so the door swing may be reversed at any time without additional
parts. Conversion is accomplished by transferring hinges to the opposite side of the
cabinet.
To change the direction
of the door opening:
1. Open the dryer door. Remove the four hinge hole plugs from the left side of the
door opening. Place nearby for future installation. NOTE: You may need a plastic
knife to help pull out the plugs. Be careful not to scratch the paint.
2. Remove the four screws that secure the door hinges to the dryer front panel (see
below). NOTE: Remove one screw from each of the two hinges first. Hold the door
firmly before removing the last two screws.
3. Rotate the door 180 ° and reinstall the door hinges to the dryer front panel with the
four screws.
4. Install the four hinge hole plugs in the open screw holes on the right side of the
door opening.

The following
are specific requirements
for proper and safe electrical installation
of your dryer.
Failure to follow
these instructions
can create electrical
shock and/or a fire hazard.
This appliance MUSTbe properly grounded. Electricalshock
can result if the dryer is not properly grounded. Follow the
instructions in this manual for proper grounding.
Do not use an extension cord with this dryer. Some extension
cords are not designed to withstand the amounts of electrical
current this dryer utilizes and can melt, creating electrical shock
and/or fire hazard. Locate the dryer within reach of the receptacle
for the length power cord to be purchased, allowing some slack
in the cord. Refer to the pro-installation requirements in this
manual for the proper power cord to be purchased.
P_ A U.L. approved strain relief must be installed onto power
cord. If the strain relief is not attached, the cord can be pulled
out of the dryer and can be cut by any movement of the cord,
resulting in electrical shock.
Do not use an aluminum wired receptacle with a copper
wired power cord and plug (or vice versa). A chemical reaction
occurs between copper and aluminum and can cause electrical
shorts. The proper wiring and receptacle is a copper wired
power
cord with a copper wired receptacle.
NOTE: Dryersoperating on 208 volt power supply will have longer
drying times than operating on 240 volt power supply.

Improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a
licensed electrician if you are in doubt asto whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
For a grounded,
cord-connected dryer:
1. The dryer MUST be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical
shock by a path of least resistance for electrical current.
2. After you purchase and install a 3 wire or 4wire power supply
cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor
and a
grounding plug that matches you wiring system, the plug
MUST be plugged into an appropriate,
copper wired receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
If in doubt, call a licensed electrician.
3. DO NOT modify the plug you've installed on this appliance.
If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
For a permanently
connected dryer:
1. The 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 appliance.
