Power supply cord Direct wire This dryer is manufactured with the cabinet-ground conductor connected to the NEUTRAL (center) of the wiring harness at the terminal block, if local codes do NOT permit this type of connection, use "Four-wire connection" instructions• GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS_ This appliance must be grounded, In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least r_sistance for electric current. If using a power supply cord, 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 quakged electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is propedy grounded, Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. If using a direct wire connection, this appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment grounding terminal or lead on the appliance. If the house has aluminum wiring, follow the procedure below: a) Connect a section of 8 gauge solid copper wire to the connector block, b) Connect the aluminum wiring to the added section of copper wire using special connectors designed and Underwriters Laboratories Listed for joining copper to aluminum Follow the electrical connector manufacturer's recommended procedure, C) Aluminum/copper connection must conform with local codes and industry-accepted wiring practices. Fire Hazard Use a new UL approved 30 ampere power supply cord. Use a UL approved strain relief. Disconnect power before making electrical connections. Connect neutral wire (white or center wire) to center terminal (silver). Ground wire (green or bare wire) must be connected to green ground connector. Connect remaining 2 supply wires to remaining 2 terminals (gold). Securely tighten all electrical connections. Failure to do so can result in death, fire, or electrical shock. 1, Disconnect the power supply. external ground screw 2, Remove hold-down tab_ t_j_/or oni'u hold cover.SCarnedw terminal block _ dc°reWn w Fire Hazard Use fO gauge solid copper wire.
