L Turn off the circuit breaker (s) (30 amp) or remove the dryer's
circuit fl_se at the electrical box.
2. Be sure the dryer cord is unplugged
from the wall receptacle.
3. Remove the power cord cover located at the lower back.
4. Remove and discard ground strap. Keep the green
ground screw- for step 7.
5. Install 3/4 in. UL recognized
strain relief to power
cord entry hole. Bring power cord through strain relief.
6. Connect power cord as follows:
A. Connect the 2 hot lines to the outer screw's of
the terminal block (marked L1 and L2).
B. Connect
the neutral (white) line to the center of
the terminal block (marked N).
7. Attach ground wire of power cord with the green ground
screw" (hole above strain relief bracket). Tighten all
terminal block screws (3) completely.
8. Properly' secure power cord to strain relief.
9. Reinstall the cover.

[] EXHAUST
iNFORMATiON
,_WARNING
- USE ONLY METAL 4-IN. DUCT.
DO NOT USE DUCT LONGER THAN SPECIFIED
IN THE EXHAUST LENGTH TABLE.
Using exhaust lcmger than specified length will:
• Increase the drying times and the energy' cost.
• Reduce the dryer lite.
• Accmrmlate
lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
The correct
exhaust
installation
is YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY.
Problems
due to incorrect
installation
are not covered
by the warranty.
The MAXIMUM
ALLOWABLE
length of the exhaust system
depends
upon the type of duct, mnnber
of turns, the type of
exhaust hood (wall cap), and all conditions
noted below. Both
rigid and flexible metal duct are shown in the table below-.

EXHAUST
SYSTEM
CHECK LiST
HOOD OR WALL CAP
• Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry of birds or
other wildlife.
• Termination should present minimal resistance to the exhaust air flow
and should require little or no maintenance to prevent clogging.
• Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. Thiscould cause lintbuild up.
• "_\:all c aps must be installed at least 12 in. above ground level or any other
obstruction with the opening pointed down.
• If roof vents or louvered plenums are used, they must be equivalent to a
4-in. dampened wall cap in regard to resistance to air flow, prevention of
back drafts, and maintenance required to prevent clogging.
SEPARATION OF TURNS
For best performance, sepm'ate all turns by at least 4 IL of straight duct,
including distance between last turn and exhaust hood.
TURNS OTHER THAN 90°
• One turn of 45 o or less may be ignored.
• Two 45 o turns should be treated as one 90 ° turn.
• Each turn over 450 should be treated as one 90° turn.
SEALING OF JOINTS
• All joints should be tight to avoid leaks. The male end of each section of
duct must point away fl'om the dryer.
• Do not assemble the ductwork with fhsteners that extend into the duct.
They will serve as a collection point for lint,
• Duct joints can be made air and moisture-tight by wrapping the
overlapped joints with duct rope.
• Horizontal runs should slope down towm'd the outdoors 1/2 inch per foot
INSULATION
Duct work that runs through an unheated area or is near air conditioning
should be insulated to reduce condensation and lint
