INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS cONNEcTiNG ELEcTRic DRYERS {cont.) USA ONLY WARN|NG: • Connect the power cord to the terminal block. Each colored wire should be connected to same color screw. Wire color indicated on manual is connected to the same color screw in block. Failure to follow these instructions may result in a short or overload. • Grounding through the neutral conductor 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 conductor. Three-wire Connection for Electric Dryers: Direct wire = A 3-wire connection is NOT permitted on new construction after January 1, 1996. = A UL-listed strain relief is required. = Use UL-listed 3-wire #10 AWG=minirnurn copper conductor cable. = Allow at least 5 ft (1.5 m) length to allow for removal and reinstallation of the dryer. 1" (2.5 cm) I-4 Terminal Block UL-Listed Strain Relief J Remove 31/2inches (8.9 cm) of the outer covering from the wire. Strip 1 inch (2.5 cm) insulation from each wire. Bend the ends of the three wires into a hook shape. UL-Listed 3-Wire Power Cord Remove the terminal block access cover on the upper back of the dryer.
