Location Requirements
Dryer Dimensions
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materlals and vapors, such as
geaollne, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 Inches (46 cm) above the floor
for a garage Installatlon.
Fallura to do so can result In death, exploslon, or flra.
You will need
a A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. See
"Venting Requirements."
a A espamte 30 amp circuit.
= A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft (61 cm) of
either side of the dryer. See "Electrical Requirements."
= A sturdy floor to support the total weight (dryer and load) of
200 Ibs (90.7 kg). The combined weight of a companion
appliance should also be considered.
= A level floor with a maximum slope of 1 in. (2.5 ore) under
entire dryer. (If slope is greeter than 1 in. [2.5 cm], install
Extended Dryer Feet Kit, Part No. 279810.) Clothes may not
tumble properly and models with automatic sensor cycles
may not operate correctly if dryer is not level.
Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 4,5°F(7°(3). At
lower temperatures, the dryer might net shut off at the end of an
automatic cycle. Dryingtimes can be extended.
Dryer must not be installed or stored inan area where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,
installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or
sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector
Installation Clearances
The location must be large enough to allow the dryer door to open
fully.

Minimum installation spacing for recessed area or closet
installation
The dimensions shown following are forthe minimum spacing
allowed.
a Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
a
Additional clearances might be required for wall, door and
floor moldings.
Additional spacing of 1 in. (2.5 cm) on all sides of the dryer is
a
recommended to reduce noise transfer.
a
For closet installation,with a door, minimum ventilation
openings inthe top end bottom of the door ere required.
Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are
acceptable.
a Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.

Mobile Home-Additional Installation Requirements
This dryer is suitable for mobile home installations,
The installation must conform to the Manufactured Home
Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280
(formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and
Safety, "ntis24, HUD Part 280),
Mobile home installations require:
• Metal exhaust system hardware which is available for
purchase from your dealer,
Special provisions must be made in mobile homes to
intmduca outside air into the drye_ The opening (such as a
nearby window) should be at least twice as large as the dryer
exhaust opening.
If your outlet looks like this:

4-wire receptacle(14-30R)
Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord with ring or spade
terminals and UL approved strain relief. The 4-wire power supply
cord, at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long, must have 4, 10 gauge solid
copper wires and match a 4-wire receptacle of NEMA Type
14-30R. The ground wire (ground conductor) may be either green
or bare. The neutral conductor must be identified by a white cover.
Eleclfical Requirements
It is your responsibility
• Tocontacta qualifiedelectricalinstaller,
• To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in
conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-1ateat edition and all local codas and ordinances.
The National Electric Code requires a 4-wire supply
connection for homes built after 1996, dryer circuits involved
in remodeling after 1996, and all mobile home installations.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA 02269.
• To supply the required3 or 4 wire, single phase, 120/240-volt,
60-Hz., AC-only electrical supply (or 3 or 4 wire, 120/208-volt
electrical supply, if specified on the sarial/rating plate) on a
separate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A
time-delay fuse or circuit breaker isrecommended. Connect
to an individual branch circuit. Do nat have afuse in the
neutral or grounding circuit.
• Do not use an extension cord.
• If codas permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the
ground path isadequate.
Electrical Connection
To propedy install your dryer, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be usingand follow the instructions
provided for it here,
• If local codas do nat permit the connection of a cabinet
ground connector to the neutral wire, see "Optional 3-wire
connection" section,
• This dryer is manufactured with a 3-wire, cabinat-ground
conductor connected to the NEUTRAL (white or center wire)
of the wiring harness at the terminal block,
• Use a 4-wire conductor cord when the dryer is installed in a
mobile home or an area where local codas do not permit
grounding through the neutral.
If using a power supply cord:
Use a UL approved power supply cord kitmarked for use with
clothes dryers. The kit should contain:
• A UL approved 30 amp power supply cord, rated 120/240 volt
minimum. The cord should be type SRD or SRDT and be at
least 4 ft (1.22 m) long. The wires that connect to the dryer
must end in ringterminals or spade terminals with upturned
ends.
• A UL approved strain relief.
If your outlet looks like this:
©
3-wire receptacle(10-30R)
Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord with ring or spade
terminals and UL approved strain relief. The 3-wire power supply
cord, at least 4 ft (1.22 m) long, must have 3, No.-10 copper wires
and match a 3-wire receptacle of NEMA Type 10-30R.
If connecting by direct wire:
Power supply cable must match power supply (4-wire or 3-wire)
and be:
• Flexible armored cable or non-metallic sheathed copper cable
(with ground wire), protected with flexible metallic conduit. All
current-carrying wires must be insulated.
• 10 gauge solid copper wire (do not use aluminum).
• At least 5 ft (1.52 m) long.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
m For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
This dryer 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. This
dryer uses a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• For a permanently connected dryer:
This dryer must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent
wiring system, or an equipment-greunding conductor must be
run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equip-
ment-grounding terminal or lead on the dryer.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock,
Check with a qualified electrician or service representative or
personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is proper-
ly grounded, Do not modify the plug on the power supply cord:
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician,
