ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
INFORMATION FOR GAS DRYERS (cont.)
The dryer must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes, or in the absence of
local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1
This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60Hz,
and be connected to a properly grounded branch
circuit protected by a 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker
or time delay fuse. If electrical supply provided
does not meet these requirements, it is the owner's
responsibility to have a licensed electrician install a
properly grounded 3-prong outlet.
Ensure proper
ground exists
before use.
If local codes permit an external ground wire
(not provided) may be added by attaching to the
green ground screw on the rear of the dryer, and
to a grounded metal cold water pipe or other
established ground.
