This dryer is supplied without an electric cord and plug. It
must be connected by a Whirlpool authorized service person
to a single-phase electricity supply at the voltage shown
on the dataplate, using a suitable fixed wiring installation in
accordance with local and national wiring regulations.
A 3-wire circular cord of minimum conductor size 1.0 mm
■
cross-section area should be used.
A 10 A supply fuse should be used, and a switch with a clear
■
OFF marking having a contact separation in both poles that
provides full disconnection under over-voltage category
III conditions must be incorporated into the fixed wiring in
accordance with local wiring regulations. The dryer should
be positioned so that the disconnection switch is clearly
visible and easily accessible to the user. This disconnection
switch also provides the function of an emergency stop
control for the user.
A cord clamp bush is provided on the dryer, and should
