Electrical Requirements

This dryer is supplied without an electric cord and plug. It must be connected by a competent
electrician to a single-phase electricity supply at the voltage shown on the dataplate, using a
suitable fixed wiring installation in accordance with local and national wiring regulations.
NOTE: In accordance with the European EMC Directive (89/336/EEC) the maximum
electricity supply system impedence to which the electric dryer should be connected is
declared to be 0.302 Ohm + j0.189 Ohm.

Electric earthing is required on this dryer.
Do not earth to a gas pipe.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or earthing circuit.
Check with a qualified electrician to be sure the dryer is
properly earthed.
Do not reuse the old power supply mains cord.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
death, fire, or serious injury.
A 3-wire circular cord of minimum conductor size 2.5 mm
should be used.
A 16A supply fuse should be used, and a switch with a minimum contact separation of
3 mm in both poles must be incorporated into the fixed wiring for dryer disconnection.
The dryer should be positioned so that the disconnection switch is accessible to the user.
A cord clamp bush is provided on the dryer, and should be tightened on completion of

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
The dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceiling or a
concealed space of a building.
If codes permit and an additional earth bond wire is used, it is recommended that a
competent electrician determine that the earth bond path is adequate.

EARTHING INSTRUCTIONS

This dryer must be earthed. In the event of malfunction or
breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-
earthing 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
properly earthed.

or fire.
To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
If using an existing vent system
Clean lint from the entire length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged
with lint.
Replace any plastic or metal foil vent with rigid or flexible heavy metal vent.
