NOTE: Since January 1, 1996, the
National Electrical Code requires that new
constructions utilize a 4-wire connection to
an electric dryer. A 4-wire cord must also
be used where local codes do not permit
grounding through the neutral.
3-wire connection is NOT for use on new
construction.
Remove the terminal block access cover
located at the upper back.
