entry hole. Bring power cord through strain relief.
5. Connect power cord as follows:
A. Connect the 2 hot lines to the outer screws of
the terminal block (marked L1 and L2).
B. Connect the neutral (white) line to the center
of the terminal block (marked N).
6. Be sure ground strap is connected to neutral (center)

EXHAUST INFORMATION
EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK LIST
HOOD OR WALL CAP
• Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry
of birds or other wildlife.
• Termination should present minimal resistance to
the exhaust air flow and should require little or no
maintenance to prevent clogging.
•
Never
install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This
could cause lint build up.
• Wall caps must be installed at least 12 in. above ground
level or any other obstruction with the opening pointed
down.
SEPARATION OF TURNS
For best performance, separate all turns by at least 4 ft.
of straight duct, including distance between last turn and
exhaust hood.
TURNS OTHER THAN 90º
• One turn of 45º or less may be ignored.
• Two 45º turns should be treated as one 90º turn.
• Each turn over 45º should be treated as one 90º turn.
WARNING -
IN CANADA AND IN
THE UNITED STATES, THE REQUIRED EX-
HAUST DUCT DIAMETER IS 4 IN (102mm). DO
NOT USE DUCT LONGER THAN SPECIFIED IN
THE EXHAUST LENGTH TABLE.
Using exhaust longer than specified length will:
• Increase the drying times and the energy cost.
• Reduce the dryer life.
• Accumulate lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
The correct exhaust installation is YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY. Problems due to incorrect
installation are not covered by the warranty.
Remove and discard existing plastic or metal foil
transition duct and replace with UL listed transition
duct.
The
MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE
duct length and number of
bends of the exhaust system depends upon the type of
duct, number of turns, the type of exhaust hood (wall
cap), and all conditions noted below. The maximum
duct length for rigid metal duct is shown in the table
below.
