Electrical Requirements

Washer

(120 Volt, 60 Hertz with 3-Prong Grounding Plug)

NOTE: The wiring diagram is located behind the
control panel, inside the control cabinet.

Figure 24

The washer is designed to be operated on a separate
branch, polarized, three-wire, effectively grounded,
120 Volt, 60 Hertz, AC (alternating current) circuit
protected by a 15 Ampere fuse, equivalent fusetron or
circuit breaker.

The three-prong grounding plug on the power cord
should be plugged directly into a polarized three-slot
effectively grounded receptacle rated 110/120 Volts
AC (alternating current) 15 Amps. Refer to Figure 25
to determine correct polarity of the wall receptable.

Grounding Instructions

The washer 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. The washer is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and a 3-prong grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.

DO NOT modify the plug provided with the washer –
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualitied electrician.

NOTE: Have a qualified electrician check the
polarity of the wall receptacle. If a voltage reading
is measured other than that illustrated, the
qualified electrician should correct the problem.

D009I

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,
serious injury or death, all wiring and
grounding MUST conform with the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA No. 70, and such local regulations as
might apply. It is the customer’s
responsibility to have the wiring and fuses
checked by a qualified electrician to make
sure the laundry room has adequate
electrical power to operate the washer.
