extension cords are not designed to withstand the amounts of electrical current this dryer utilizes and can melt, creating electrical shock and/or ﬁre hazard. Locate the dryer within reach of the receptacle for the length power cord to be purchased, allowing some slack in the cord. Refer to the pre-installation requirements in this manual for the proper power cord to be purchased.

Direct Drain Kit (on some models)

Installation Instructions

If your model included a direct drain kit, you may follow the instructions below to install it on your dryer for convenient drainage of your dryer’s condensed water.

1 Locate the red tubing and plastic ﬁtting on the back of

the dryer.

2 With a pair of pliers, release the hose clamp and remove

the tubing from the plastic ﬁtting.

4 Retrieve the clear tubing that came in the kit and install it

also onto the elbow.

5 With the plastic cable tie that came with the kit, secure

the elbow and tubes to the plastic ﬁtting.

3 Retrieve the 90 degree plastic elbow from the direct drain

installation kit that came with your dryer and install it onto the red tubing.

Direct Drain Kit continued on next page...

Installation Instructions

Direct Drain Kit, continued

6 To route the drain tube to the left of the dryer, secure the

tube with the “P” clamp from the kit to the back of the dryer with the cabinet screw shown below.

7 To route the drain tube to the right of the dryer, route the

tube across the back of the dryer and snap it into the “C” clips shown as below.

8 Install the hose hanger from the kit onto the end of the

hose and insert in drain.

IMPORTANT

Follow these guidelines for proper drain hose installation:

1 The distance from the bottom of the drain tube sag to

the top of highest part of drain tube should be no more than 20” (50 cm).

Drain tube may need to be shortened with scissors if sag is greater than allowed.

2 The drain height location should be no more than 40”

(100 cm) above the bottom of the dryer feet.

General installation

1 Use a carpenter’s level to level your dryer front-to-back

and side-to-side.

2 Use adjustable pliers to adjust the leveling legs so the

dryer is level front-to-rear and side-to-side, and stable corner-to-corner.

3 Press down on alternate corners and sides and feel for

the slightest movement. Adjust the appropriate leg(s) so the dryer sits solidly on the ﬂoor on ALL four legs. Keep the leveling leg extension at a minimum for best performance of the dryer.

IMPORTANT

Be sure the power is off at a circuit breaker/fuse box before plugging the power cord into an outlet.

4 Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.

5 Turn on the power at the circuit breaker/fuse box. 6 Read the Use & Care Guide provided with the dryer. It

contains valuable and helpful information that will save you time and money.

7 If you have any questions during initial operation, please

review the “Avoid Service Checklist” in your Use & Care Guide before calling for service.

8 Place these instructions in a location near the dryer for

future reference.

Installation Instructions

NOTE

A wiring diagram is located next to the water container behind the left cabinet panel.

Reversing Door

1 Protect ﬂat work surface, such as top of dryer or ﬂoor

near dryer, with a soft cloth or towel.

2 Open dryer door and remove the two hinge screws.

Remove lower screw ﬁrst, then upper screw.

3 Gently place dryer door face down on ﬂat, covered work

surface.

4 Locate the 12 screws (no. 1-12) on the inner door ring.

Remove and save these 12 screws.

6 Release the door switch striker and move it to the

opposite location and reinstall. Set the inner door ring aside.

7 Lift the inner lens and set it aside.

5 Separate inner door ring from the rest of the door.

8 If your model has 8 screws securing the outer lens in

place, remove and save them for later. Lift and rotate the outer lens 180°. Lower the outer lens back in place.
