Dryer 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 Canadian Electrical Code.
■ The Canadian Electrical Code requires a 4-wire power supply
connection.
■ To supply the required 4-wire, single phase, 240 V, 60 Hz
AC only electrical supply (or 4 wire, 120 V/208 V electrical
supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) on a separate
40 A 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
This dryer is supplied/fitted with an electrical supply cord and
plug. It should be connected to a 4-wire electrical supply
receptacle of NEMA Type 14-50P, at the voltage shown on the
rating plate. The dryer must be positioned so that the plug is
clearly visible and accessible. This plug also provides the
function of an emergency stop control for the user. If the fitted
plug is not used, the electrical connection must be carried out by
a competent electrician in accordance with local or national
codes.
Wire Receptacle
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a
specially terminated cord by an authorized service agent or a
similarly competent person in order to avoid a hazard.

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,
chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space
of a building. Only rigid or flexible metal vent shall be used for
exhausting.
4" (102 mm) Heavy, Metal Exhaust Vent
■ Only a 4" (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps
may be used.
■ Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
Rigid metal vent:
■ Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid
crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent:
(Acceptable only if it is accessible to
clean)
■ Must be fully extended and supported in final dryer location.
■ Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result
in reduced airflow and poor performance.
■ Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors.
■ The total length should not exceed 7¾ ft (2.4 m).
NOTE:
If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire
length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged
with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal
or flexible metal vents. Review "Vent System Chart" and if
necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best drying
performance.
