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.

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.
