When plugging in the washer:

DO NOT overload circuits.

DO NOT use an extension cord.

DO NOT use an adapter.

DO NOT operate both a washer and gas dryer on 

the same circuit. Use separately fused 15 Amp 

circuits.

The washer is designed to be operated on a separate 

branch, polarized, three-wire, effectively grounded, 

120 Volt, 60 Hertz, AC (alternating current) circuit 

protected by a 

15 Amp fuse

, equivalent fusetron or 

circuit breaker.

The three-prong grounding plug on the power cord 

should be plugged directly into a polarized three-slot 

effectively grounded receptacle rated 110/120 Volts 

AC (alternating current) 15 Amps. Refer to 

Figure 31

 

to determine correct polarity of the wall receptacle.

Grounding Information

The washer must be grounded. In the event of 

malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the 

risk of electric shock by providing a path of least 

resistance for electric current.
The washer is equipped with a cord having an 

equipment-grounding conductor and a three-prong 

grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an 

appropriate outlet that is properly installed and 

grounded in accordance with all local codes and 

ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided with the washer – if 

it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed 

by a qualified electrician.

NOTE: Have a qualified electrician check the 

polarity of the wall receptacle. If a voltage reading 

is measured other than that in 

Figure 31

, the 

qualified electrician should correct the problem.

Step 12: Recheck steps 1-11

Refer to 

Installer Checklist

 on the back cover of this 

manual and make sure that unit is installed correctly.
Run washer through one complete cycle to make sure 

it is operating properly.

Step 13: Check Heat Source

Electric Dryers

Close the loading door and start the dryer in a heat 

setting (refer to the 

Operation 

section). After the dryer 

has operated for three minutes, the exhaust air or 

exhaust pipe should be warm.

Gas Dryers

IMPORTANT: This operation is to be conducted 

by qualified personnel only.

To view the burner flame, remove the lower front 

panel of the dryer.
Close the loading door, start the dryer in a heat setting 

(refer to the 

Operation

 

section). The unit will start, the 

igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite. 

IMPORTANT:  If all air is not purged out of gas 

line, gas igniter may go off before gas is ignited. If 

this happens, after approximately two minutes 

igniter will again attempt gas ignition.

IMPORTANT: If igniter does not light, make sure 

gas is turned on.

To reduce the risk of an electric shock or 

fire, DO NOT use an extension cord or an 

adapter to connect the washer to the 

electric power source.

W082

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk 

of electric shock. Check with a qualified 

electrician or service person if you are in 

doubt as to whether the washer is 

properly grounded.

W216

WARNING

This unit is equipped with a three-prong 

(grounding) plug for your protection 

against shock hazard and should be 

plugged directly into a properly grounded 

three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or 

remove the grounding prong from this 

plug.
