Mobile Home-Additional Installation Requirements

This dryer is suitable for mobile home installations.

The installation must conform to the Manufactured Home

Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280

(formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and

Safety, Title 24, HUD Part 280).

Mobile home installations require:

Metal exhaust system hardware which is available for

purchase from your dealer.

Special provisions must be made in mobile homes to

introduce outside air into the dryer. The opening (such as a

nearby window) should be at least twice as large as the dryer

exhaust opening.

Electrical Requirements

It is your responsibility

To contact a qualified electrical installer.

To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in

conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA

70-latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.

A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

National Fire Protection Association, 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-volt

electrical supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) on a

separate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A

time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended. Connect

to an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in the

neutral or grounding circuit.

Do not use an extension cord.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is

recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the

ground path is adequate.

Electrical Connection

To properly install your dryer, you must determine the type of

electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions

provided for it here.

If local codes do not permit the connection of a cabinet

ground connector to the neutral wire, see "Optional 3-wire

connection" section.

This dryer is manufactured with a 3-wire, cabinet-ground

conductor connected to the NEUTRAL (white or center wire)

of the wiring harness at the terminal block.

Use a 4-wire conductor cord when the dryer is installed in a

mobile home or an area where local codes do not permit

grounding through the neutral.

If using a power supply cord:

Use a UL approved power supply cord kit marked for use with

clothes dryers. The kit should contain:

A UL approved 30 amp power supply cord, rated 120/240 volt

minimum. The cord should be type SRD or SRDT and be at

least 4 ft (1.22 m) long. The wires that connect to the dryer must

end in ring terminals or spade terminals with upturned ends.

A UL approved strain relief.

If your outlet looks like this:

Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord with ring or spade

terminals and UL approved 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

14-30R. The ground wire (ground conductor) may be either green

or bare. The neutral conductor must be identified by a white cover.

If your outlet looks like this:

Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord with ring or spade

terminals and UL approved strain relief. The 3-wire power supply

cord, at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long, must have 3, No.-10 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 non-metallic sheathed copper cable

(with ground wire), protected 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.

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 uses 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 ground-

ed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

For a permanently connected dryer:

This dryer 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 equip-

ment-grounding terminal or lead on the dryer.

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 proper-

ly grounded. Do not modify the plug on the power supply cord:

if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a

qualified electrician.
