GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

■  

For a grounded, cord-connected dryer: 

This dryer 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. 
This dryer is equipped with a cord having an equipment- 
grounding conductor and a 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.

WARNING:

 

Improper connection of the equipment- 

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. 
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative 
or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is 
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with 
the dryer: if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet 
installed by a qualified electrician.

4-wire 

receptacle 

(14-30R)

If your outlet looks like this:

Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord with 

ring or spade terminals and UL listed strain 

relief. The 4-wire power supply cord, at least  

4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have 4 10-gauge solid 

copper wires and match a 4-wire receptacle of 

NEMA Type 14-30 R. The ground wire (ground 

conductor) may be either green or bare. The 

neutral conductor must be identified by a  

white cover.

3-wire 

receptacle 

(10-30R)

If your outlet looks like this:

Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord with 

ring or spade terminals and UL listed strain 

relief. The 3-wire power supply cord, at least  

4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have 3 10-gauge solid 

copper wires and match a 3-wire receptacle of 

NEMA Type 10-30R.

If connecting by direct wire:

Power supply cable must match power supply (4-wire or 3-wire) 

and be:

 

Flexible armored cable or nonmetallic sheathed copper 

cable (with ground wire), covered with flexible metallic 

conduit. All current-carrying wires must be insulated.

 

10-gauge solid copper wire (do not use aluminum) at  

least 5 ft. (1.52 m) long.
