Location RequirementsMinimum spacing for recessed area or closetinstallationThe dimensions shown following are for the minimum spacingallowed. Additional spacing should be considered for ease ofinstallation and servicing. Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, andfloor moldings. Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the dryeris recommended to reduce noise transfer. For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilationopenings in the top and bottom of the door are required.Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openingsare acceptable. Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.Minimum Required SpacingYou will need: A location allowing for proper exhaust installation.See “Venting Requirements.” A separate 30 amp circuit. If you are using power supply cord, a grounded electricaloutlet located within 2 ft. (610 mm) of either side of dryer.See “Electrical Requirements.” A sturdy floor to support the total weight (dryer and load)of 200 lbs. (90.7 kg). The combined weight of a companionappliance should also be considered. Level floor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entiredryer. (If slope is greater than 1" [25 mm], install ExtendedDryer Feet Kit, Part Number 279810.) If not level, clothesmay not tumble properly and automatic sensor cycles maynot operate correctly.Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45 F (7 C). Atlower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end of anautomatic cycle. Drying times can be extended.The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it willbe exposed to water and/or weather.Check code requirements.

Electrical RequirementsIt is your responsibility: To contact a qualified electrical installer. To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and inconformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.The National Electrical Code requires a 4-wire power supplyconnection for homes built after 1996, dryer circuits involvedin 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 voltelectrical supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) on aseparate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Atime-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. Connectto an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in theneutral or grounding circuit. Do not use an extension cord. If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it isrecommended that a qualified electrician determine that theground path is adequate.Electrical ConnectionTo properly install your dryer, you must determine the type ofelectrical connection you will be using and follow the instructionsprovided for it here. If local codes do not permit the connection of a neutralground wire to the neutral wire, see “Optional 3-wireconnection” section. This dryer is manufactured ready to install with a 3-wireelectrical supply connection. The neutral ground wire ispermanently connected to the neutral conductor (white wire)within the dryer. If the dryer is installed with a 4-wire electricalsupply connection, the neutral ground wire must be removedfrom the external ground connector screw (green screw), andsecured under the neutral terminal (center or white wire) ofthe terminal block. When the neutral ground wire is securedunder the neutral terminal (center or white wire) of the terminalblock, the dryer cabinet is isolated from the neutral conductor. A 4-wire power supply connection must be used when thedryer is installed in a location where grounding through theneutral conductor is prohibited. Grounding through the neutralis prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations, (2) mobilehomes, (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas where localcodes prohibit grounding through the neutral conductors.If using a power supply cord:Use a UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use withclothes dryers. The kit should contain: A UL listed 30-amp power supply cord, rated 120/240 voltminimum. The cord should be type SRD or SRDT and beat least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long. The wires that connect to thedryer must end in ring terminals or spade terminals withupturned ends. A UL listed strain relief.6If your outlet looks like this:Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord withring or spade terminals and UL listed strainrelief. The 4-wire power supply cord, at least4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have 4 10-gauge solidcopper wires and match a 4-wire receptacle ofNEMA Type 14-30 R. The ground wire (ground4-wire receptacle conductor) may be either green or bare. The(14-30R)neutral conductor must be identified by a whitecover.If your outlet looks like this:Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord withring or spade terminals and UL listed strainrelief. The 3-wire power supply cord, at least4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have 3 10-gauge solidcopper wires and match a 3-wire receptacle of3-wire receptacle NEMA Type 10-30R.(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. Allcurrent-carrying wires must be insulated. 10-gauge solid copper wire (do not use aluminum). At least 5 ft. (1.52 m) long.
