WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
All U.S. models are produced for a 3-WIRE SYSTEM
CONNECTION .
The dryer frame is grounded to the neutral conductor
at the terminal block. A 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTION
is required for new or remodeled construction, mobile
homes, or if local codes do not permit grounding through
neutral conductor. If the 4-wire system is used, the dryer
frame cannot be grounded to the neutral conductor at the
terminal block. Refer to the “ Electric Requirements ” section
on page 17 for 3-WIRE or 4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS.
Remove the terminal block cover plate.
Insert the power cord with a UL-listed strain relief through
the hose provided in the cabinet near the terminal block.
•
A strain relief must be used.
Do not loosen the nuts already installed on the terminal
block. Be sure they are tight. Use a
3/8
" (1 cm) deep-well
socket.
