Electrical: A four-wire or three-wire, single phase,
120/240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, electrical supply (or
120/208-volt electrical supply, if specified on the
serial/rating plate) is required on a separate 30 amp
circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Use 10
gauge solid copper wire. A time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker is recommended.
Exhaust venting: Exhaust your dryer to the
outside. Four-inch diameter vent is required. Rigid
or flexible metal exhaust vent must be used. Do not
use plastic or metal foil vent. Exhaust outlet hood
must be at least 12 inches from the ground or any
object that may be in the path of the exhaust.
