INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 5: Connect the power cord (U.S. models only)
• Determine whether your electric outlet is a three-wire or four-wire outlet. See
Power outlet types on page 19.
Three-wire outlet - for electric dryers:
1 On your dryer, remove the center terminal block screw.
2 Connect the neutral wire (white or center wire) of the power cord to the center
terminal screw of the terminal block. Be sure to cross the screw through the
ring of the power cord terminal and tighten the screw.
3 Connect the other wires to the outer terminal block screws. Be sure to cross
the screw through the terminal ring and tighten the screw.
4 Tighten the strain relief screws.
5 Insert the tab of the terminal block cover into your dryer’s rear panel slot, then
secure the cover with a screw.
Important:
• Before you connect the power cord, review the electric requirements in
Electric requirements
on page 18.
• Before testing or operating your dryer, make sure that your dryer is grounded.
See Grounding requirements on page 21.
WARNING: If your are converting from a four-wire electrical system to a
three-wire, you must reconnect the ground strap to the terminal block support
to ground the dryer frame to the neutral conductor. Ring-type terminals are
recommended. If using strap terminals, make sure that they are tightened.
