volt
Maytag electric dryers are manufac-
tured to operate on 120/240 volt, 60 Hz
AC approved electrical service. Should
the dryer be operated on a 208 volt
electrical system, the dryer must be
converted. A heating element kit is
available, Part No. 304837, which is
used to convert the dryer from 240 volt
to a 208 volt system.
The circuit should be fused through a
30 amp fuse or comparable circuit
breaker, on both sides of the line. The
service cord receptacle should be
wired with no smaller than a No. 10
wire and be sure a strain relief is used.
2. The neutral line of the service cord
must always be connected to the P2
service post. The two 120 volt lines
of the service cord then go to the P1
and P3 terminal block posts as
shown.
