Step 3: Connect Fill Hoses

WARNING

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system

that has not been used for two weeks or

more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If

the hot water system has not been used for such a period and before using the

washer, turn on all hot water faucets and

let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any

accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is flammable. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

W029

Water pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a maximum of 120 pounds per square inch (138 to 827 kPa) static pressure measured at the faucet.

NOTE: Water pressure under 20 pounds per square inch (138 kPa) will cause an extended fill

time in the washer and may not properly flush out the detergent dispenser.

Turn on the water faucets and flush the lines for approximately two minutes to remove any foreign

material that could clog the screens in the water mixing valve.

NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or

renovated buildings, it is very important to flush the lines since build-up may have occurred during

construction.

Water Supply

Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4 inch (19.1 mm) female garden hose couplings. DO NOT

USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CON2qECTIONS.

Water supply faucets should be readily accessible to permit turning them off when washer is not being

used. Recommended cold water temperature is 60° to

80 ° Fahrenheit (16 ° to 27 ° Celsius). Recommended maximum hot water temperature is 125 ° Fahrenheit (51 ° Celsius). Warm water is a mixture of hot and cold

water. Warm water temperature is dependent upon water temperature and pressure of both the hot and cold water supply lines.

Connecting Hoses

Remove the two plain rubber washers and two filter screens from the accessories bag. Install them into each end of the fill hoses as shown in Figure 5. The screen must be facing outward.

Screw hose couplings with the filter screens onto the water faucets until they are finger-tight. Then, using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Use the red

color-coded hose for the hot water connection and the blue color-coded hose for the cold water connection.

Screw hose couplings from other end of hoses onto the water mixing valve until they are finger-tight. Then, using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Refer to

Figure 6. Make sure the red color-coded hose from the

hot water faucet goes to the water mixing valve marked "H" and the blue color-coded hose from the

cold faucet goes to the valve marked "C".

IMPORTANT: Do not cross thread or overtighten couplings. This will cause them to leak.

Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found, turn off the water, unscrew hoses and reinstall them

until there are no leaks.

IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply whenever there will be an extended period of non-use.

WARNING

To prevent personal injury, avoid contact with inlet water temperatures higher than

125 ° Fahrenheit (51 ° Celsius) and hot surfaces.

Step 7: Connect Dryer Exhaust System

To reduce the risk of fire and combustion

gas accumulation the dryer MUST be exhausted to the outdoors.

To reduce the risk of fire and the

accumulation of combustion gases, DO NOT exhaust dryer air into a window well, gas vent, chimney or enclosed, unventilated area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling, crawl

space under a building or concealed space

of a building.

WARNING

This gas appliance contains or produces a

chemical or chemicals which can cause death or serious illness and which are known to the State of California to cause

cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. To reduce the risk from substances in

the fuel or from fuel combustion, make sure this appliance is installed, operated, and

maintained according to the instructions in

this manual.

To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT use

plastic or thin foil ducting to exhaust the dryer.

• DO NOT use plastic, thin foil or type B ducting. Rigid metal duct is recommended. Refer to

Figure 21.

W604

W045

Wl15

W354

Locate dryer so exhaust duct is as short as possible.

Be certain old ducts are cleaned before installing your new dryer.

Use 4 inch (102 mm) diameter rigid or flexible metal duct.

The male end of each section of duct must point away from the dryer.

Use as few elbows as possible. Use of duct tape or pop-rivets on all seams and

joints is recommended, if allowed by local codes.

DO NOT use sheet metal screws or fasteners on exhaust pipe joints which extend into the duct

and catch lint.

Ductwork that runs through unheated areas must be insulated to help reduce condensation and lint build-up on pipe walls.

In mobile home installations, dryer exhaust duct must be secured to mobile home structure.

• Dryer exhaust duct MUST NOT terminate under mobile home.

Dryer exhausts 220 cfm (measured at back of dryer).

DO NOT install flexible duct in concealed spaces, such as a wall or ceiling.

Static pressure in exhaust duct should not be greater than .6 inches water column (1.5 cm), measured with manometer placed on exhaust duct 2 feet (61 cm) from dryer (check with dryer running and no load).

Exhausting dryer in hard-to-reach locations can be done by installing 521P3 Flexible Metal Vent Kit (available as optional equipment at extra

cost).

Sufficient make-up air must be supplied to replace the air exhausted by the dryer. The free area of any opening for outside air must be at

least 40 in.2 (260 cm2).

Step 12: Check Heat Source

Electric Dryers

Close the loading door and start the dryer in a heat setting (refer to the Dryer User's Guide supplied with the unit). After the dryer has operated for three minutes, the exhaust air or exhaust pipe should be

warm.

Gas Dryers

IMPORTANT: This operation is to be conducted by qualified personnel only.

To view the burner flame, remove the lower front panel of the dryer.

Close the loading door, start the dryer in a heat setting (refer to the Dryer User's Guide supplied with the unit); the unit will start, the igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite.

IMPORTANT: If all air is not purged out of gas line, gas igniter may go offbefore gas is ignited. If this happens, after approximately two minutes igniter will again attempt gas ignition.

IMPORTANT: If igniter does not light, make sure gas is turned on.

Page 23

After the dryer has operated for approximately five minutes, observe burner flame through lower front panel. Adjust the air shutter to obtain a soft, uniform blue flame. (A lazy, yellow-tipped flame indicates lack of air. A harsh, roaring, very blue flame indicates too much air.) Adjust the air shutter as follows:

1. Loosen the air shutter lockscrew.

Turn the air shutter to the left to get a luminous yellow-tipped flame, then turn it back slowly to the right to obtain a steady, soft blue flame.

After the air shutter is adjusted for proper flame, tighten the air shutter lockscrew securely.

4. Reinstall the lower front panel.

WARNING

For personal safety, lower front panel must be in place during normal operation.
