4-Wire Receptacle/System Connections; Water Supply And Drain - Maytag Stacked Washer/Dryer Installation Instructions Manual

4-WIRE RECEPTACLE
For a 4-wire hook-up, the frame of a 120/240 volt
machine must NOT be connected to neutral
terminals. It MUST be connected to the 4th wire
(green) of the power supply or to the metallic
covering of a 3-wire supply.
If a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA
type is used, a matching U.L. list-
ed power supply cord (pigtail)
must be used. This cord contains
four No. 10 copper conductors
with spade or ring terminals on the dryer end.
The 4th (grounding) conductor must be identified
by a green cover and the neutral conductor by a
white cover. The cord should have a suitable
strain relief, and should be a minimum 4 feet
long. The power supply cord and strain relief are
not provided with the dryer.
4-WIRE SYSTEM CONNECTIONS
1. Remove the terminal block cover.
2. Remove the ground strap screw from the
terminal block support. Fold the ground strap
over so both ends of the ground strap are
attached to the center terminal block post.
3. Connect the neutral (white) wire of the power
supply cord to the center (silver colored) terminal
of the terminal block. Connect the grounding
(green) wire of the cord to the terminal block
support using the ground strap screw.

208 VOLT OPERATION
A stacked washer/dryer model is available for
208 volt operation.
Canadian Models
L2
All Canadian models are shipped with the power
cord attached. The dryer power cord should be
plugged into a 30 ampere receptacle and fused
through a 30 ampere fuse or comparable circuit
breaker on both sides of the line.
NOTE: It is not permissible to convert a dryer in
Canada to 208 volts. A 208 volt model is not
available for Canada.

WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN

WATER SUPPLY
The water supply to the washer unit should be
capable of providing both adequate water
pressure and water temperature. The pressure
should fall within the range of 20 pounds per
square inch to 120 pounds per square inch
when the washer is filling. Note that this is flow
pressure and not static pressure. Low water
pressure will result in slow fill and could result in
a water valve sticking open after a fill.
The recommended temperature of the hot water
as delivered to the washer should be 140° F.
Warm water temperature is a result of the mix of
the hot and cold water supplies.
temperature is dependent on both the pressure
and the temperatures of the hot and cold
supplies. The desired temperature for warm is
between 100° F. and 105° F.
DRAIN FACILITIES
The drain must be capable of accepting a flow
rate of approximately 20 gallons per minute. An
Folded
inside diameter of at least 1 1/2 inches is required.
