are included.
Short inlet hose
Rubber washer
Parts needed (steam models):
5' (1.52 m) inlet hose
If using a power supply cord:
Use a UL listed power supply cord kit marked for use with
clothes dryers. The kit should contain:
■ A UL listed 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 ring terminals or spade terminals
with upturned ends.
■ A UL listed strain relief.
You will need:
■ A location allowing for proper exhaust installation. See
“Venting Requirements.”
■ A separate 15 or 20-amp circuit needed for gas dryers and
30-amp circuit needed for electric dryers.
■ If using power supply cord, a grounded electrical outlet located
within 2 ft. (610 mm) of either side of dryer. See “Electrical
Requirements.”
■ Floor must support dryer weight of 200 lbs. (90.7 kg). Also
consider weight of companion appliance.
■ Level oor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
dryer. If slope is greater than 1" (25 mm), clothes may not
tumble properly and automatic sensor cycles may not operate
correctly.
■ For garage installation, place dryer at least 18" (460 mm)
above oor.
■ Steam models only: Cold water faucet located within
4 ft. (1.2 m) of the water ll valves, and water pressure of
20-100 psi (137.9-689.6 kPa). You may use the water supply
for your washer using the “Y” connector and short hose which
are provided.
■ If you live in a hard water area, use of a water softener is
recommended to control the buildup of scale through the
water system in the dryer. Over time, the buildup of lime
scale may clog dierent parts of the water system, which
will reduce product performance. Excessive scale buildup
may lead to the need for certain part replacement or repair.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate, install, or store dryer where it will
be exposed to water, weather, or at temperatures below 45° F
(7° C). Lower temperatures may cause dryer not to shut o at
end of automatic sensor cycles, resulting in longer drying times.
NOTE: No other fuel-burning appliance can be installed in the
same closet as a dryer.

INSTALLATION CLEARANCES
For each arrangement, consider allowing more space for ease of
installation and servicing; spacing for companion appliances and
clearances for walls, doors, and floor moldings. Space must be
large enough to allow door to fully open. Add spacing on all sides
of dryer to reduce noise transfer. If a closet door or louvered door
is installed, top and bottom air openings in door are required.
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.
