Spacing for recessed area or closet installation

All dimensions show recommended spacing allowed, with tested 

spacing of 0" (0 mm) clearance on sides and rear. 

 

Additional spacing should be considered for ease of 

installation and servicing.

 

Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and 

floor moldings.

 

Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the 

dryer to reduce noise transfer.

 

For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation 

openings in the top and bottom of the door are required. 

Louvered doors with equivalent ventilitation openings are 

acceptable.

 

Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.

Mobile home - Additional installation requirements: 

This dryer is suitable for mobile home installations. The 

installation must conform to the Manufactured Home 

Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 

(formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile home construction  

and Safety, Title 24, HUD Part 280) or Standard CAN/CSA- 

Z240 MH.

Mobile home installations require: 

 

Metal exhaust system hardware, available for purchase from  

your dealer. For further information, see “Assistance or  

Service” section in your “Use and Care Guide.”

 

Special provisions must be made in mobile homes to 

introduce outside air into dryer. Openings (such as a nearby 

window) should be at least twice as large as dryer exhaust 

opening.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

It is your responsibility:

 

To contact a qualified electrical installer.

 

To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in 

conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 

- latest edition and all local codes and ordinances. 

 

The National Electrical Code requires a 4-wire power supply 

connection for homes built after 1996, dryer circuits involved 

in remodeling after 1996, and all mobile home installations. 

 

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from: 

National Fire Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park, 

Quincy, MA 02269.

 

To supply the required 3 or 4 wire, single phase, 120/240 

volt, 60 Hz, AC only electrical supply (or 3 or 4 wire, 120/208 

volt electrical supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) 

on a separate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. 

Connect to an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in 

the neutral or grounding circuit.

 

Do not use an extension cord.

 

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is 

recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the 

ground path is adequate.

If using a power supply cord:

Use a UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with  

clothes dryers. The kit should contain:

 

A UL listed 30-amp power supply cord, rated 120/240 volt 

minimum. The cord should be type SRD or SRDT and be  

at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long. The wires that connect to  

the dryer must end in ring terminals or spade terminals  

with upturned ends.

 

A UL listed strain relief.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your dryer, you must determine the type of 

electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions 

provided for it here.

 

This dryer is manufactured ready to install with a 3-wire 

electrical supply connection. The neutral ground conductor  

is permanently connected to the neutral conductor (white 

wire) within the dryer. If the dryer is installed with a 4-wire 

electrical supply connection, the neutral ground conductor 

must be removed from the external ground connector (green 

screw), and secured under the neutral terminal (center or 

white wire) of the terminal block. When the neutral ground 

conductor is secured under the neutral terminal (center or 

white wire) of the terminal block, the dryer cabinet is isolated 

from the neutral conductor.

 

If local codes do not permit the connection of a neutral  

ground wire to the neutral wire, see “Optional 3-wire 

connection” section.

 

A 4-wire power supply connection must be used when the 

appliance is installed in a location where grounding through  

the neutral conductor is prohibited. Grounding through the 

neutral is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations,  

(2) mobile homes, (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas  

where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral 

conductors.
