INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 10-Cycle Electric and Gas Dryers Using a four-wire outlet If your outlet is a four-wire (four-prong) outlet, choose a four-wire power supply cord with ring or spade terminals and UL listed strain relief. The four-wire power supply cord must: • Be at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long. • Have four 10-gauge solid copper wires. • Match a four-wire outlet of NEMA Type 14-30R. The ground wire (ground conductor) may be either green or bare. The neutral conductor must be identified by a white color. See Step-by-step instructions on page 22 for instructions on how to connect a power cord to your dryer. Gas requirements Use only natural or LP (liquid propane) gases. Gas dryers are equipped with a burner vent for use with natural gas. If you plan to use your dryer with LP (liquid propane) gas, it must be converted for safe and proper performance by a qualified service technician. A ½" (1.27cm) gas supply line is recommended and must be reduced to connect to the 3/8" (1cm) gas line on your dryer. The National Fuel Gas Code requires that an accessible, approved manual gas shut-off valve be installed within 6" of your dryer. Gas dryers installed in residential garages must be raised 18" (46cm) above the floor. • Additionally, a 1/8" (0.3cm) N.P.T. (National Pipe Thread) plugged tapping, accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream of your dryer's gas supply connection. • Your dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply pipe system during any pressure testing of the system. • Your dryer must be connected to the gas supply piping with a listed flexible gas connector that complies with the standard for connectors for gas appliances, ANSI Z21.24 or CSA 6.10. DO NOT reuse old flexible metal gas lines. Flexible gas lines must be design certified by the American Gas Association (CGA in Canada). • Any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of any liquefied petroleum gas. • As a courtesy, most local gas utilities will inspect a gas appliance installation. GAS IGNITION - Your dryer uses an automatic ignition system to ignite the burner. There is no constant burning pilot. www.insigniaproducts.com 19

Using a four-wire outlet
If your outlet is a four-wire (four-prong) outlet, choose a four-wire power supply
cord with ring or spade terminals and UL listed strain relief. The four-wire power
supply cord must:
•
Be at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long.
•
Have four 10-gauge solid copper wires.
•
Match a four-wire outlet of NEMA Type 14-30R. The ground wire (ground

identified by a white color.
See Step-by-step instructions
on page 22
for instructions on how to connect a
power cord to your dryer.
Gas requirements
Use only natural or LP (liquid propane) gases.
Gas dryers are equipped with a burner vent for use with natural gas. If you plan to
use your dryer with LP (liquid propane) gas, it must be converted for safe and
proper performance by a qualified service technician.
A ½" (1.27cm) gas supply line is recommended and must be reduced to connect to
the 3/8" (1cm) gas line on your dryer. The National Fuel Gas Code requires that an
accessible, approved manual gas shut-off valve be installed within 6" of your
dryer.
Gas dryers installed in residential garages must be raised 18" (46cm) above the
floor.
•
Additionally, a 1/8" (0.3cm) N.P.T. (National Pipe Thread) plugged tapping,
accessible for test gauge connection, must be installed immediately upstream
of your dryer’s gas supply connection.
•
Your dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply pipe system during any
pressure testing of the system.
•
Your dryer must be connected to the gas supply piping with a listed flexible
gas connector that complies with the standard for connectors for gas
appliances, ANSI Z21.24 or CSA 6.10.
DO NOT
reuse old flexible metal gas lines. Flexible gas lines must be design
certified by the American Gas Association (CGA in Canada).
•
Any pipe joint compound used must be resistant to the action of any liquefied
petroleum gas.
•
As a courtesy, most local gas utilities will inspect a gas appliance installation.
GAS IGNITION - Your dryer uses an automatic ignition system to ignite the burner.
There is no constant burning pilot.
