• Gas dryers MUST be exhausted to the outside. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire or death.

• The dryer exhaust system must be exhausted to the outside of the dwelling, if the dryer is

not exhausted outdoors, some fine lint and large amounts of moisture will be expelled

into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint inany area of the home can create a health and fire hazard.

• Use only rigid metal or flexible metal 4=in. diameter ductwork inside the dryer cabinet

or for exhausting to the outside. Use of plastic or other combustible ductwork can

cause a fire. Punctured ductwork can cause a fire if itcollapses or becomes otherwise

restricted inuse or during installation.

• Ductwork is not provided with the dryer, and you should obtain the necessary ductwork

locally. The end cap should have hinged dampers to prevent backdraft when the dryer is not in use. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire or death.

• The exhaust duct must be 4 in. (10.2 cm) in diameter with no obstructions. The exhaust

duct should be kept as short as possible.

Make sure to clean any old ducts before installing your new dryer. Failure to follow

these instructions can result in fire or death.

• Rigid or semi rigid metal ducting is recommended for use between the

dryer and the wall. in special installations

when it is impossible to make a connection with the above recommendations, a UL-

listed flexible metal transition duct may be used between the dryer and wall connection

only. The use of this ducting will affect drying time. Failure to follow these instructions can

INSTALLATIONINSTRUCTIONS

SPEciAL REQUIREMENTS FOR MANUFACTURED OR MOBILE HOMES

Any installation in a manufactured or mobile home must comply with the Manufactured Home

Construction and Safety Standards Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 or Standard CAN/CSA0Z240 MH and

local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain whether your proposed installation will comply

with these standards, please contact a sewice and installation professional for assistance.

• A gas dryer must be permanently attached to the floor.

The electrical connection for an electric dryer must be a 4-wire connection. More detailed

information concerning the electrical connection is provided in the section Connecting Electric

Dryers.

To reduce the risk of combustion and fire, the dryer must be vented to the outside.

DO NOT vent the dryer under a manufactured home or mobile home.

Electric dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, right, or bottom panel.

• Gas dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, or bottom panel. Gas dryers may

not be vented to the outside using the right side panel because of the burner housing.

The dryer exhaust duct must be affixed securely to the manufactured or mobile home structure, and the exhaust duct must be made of a material that will resist fire and combustion.

It is recommended that you use a rigid or flexible metal duct.

DO NOT connect the dryer exhaust duct to any other duct, vent, chimney, or other

exhaust duct. Make sure the dryer has adequate access to

outside fresh air to ensure proper operation. The opening for outside fresh air must be at

least 25 in2 (163 cm2). It is important that the clearance of the duct

from any combustible construction be at least 2 in. (5 cm), and when venting the dryer to

the outdoors, the dryer can be installed with a clearance of 1 in. (2.5 cm) at the sides and back

of the dryer. Please be aware that venting materials are

not supplied with the dryer. You should obtain the venting materials necessary for proper installation.

FINAL INSTALLATION CHECK

Once you have completed the installation of the dryer and it is in its final location, confirm proper operation with the following tests and Duct Condition Testing on the following page.

Testing Dryer Heating

GAS MODELS Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch

to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat setting. When the dryer starts, the igniter should

ignite the main burner. NOTE: If all air is not purged from the gas line,

the gas igniter may turn off before the main burner ignites. If this happens, the igniter will

reattempt gas ignition after approximately two minutes.

Checking Airflow

Effective dryer operation requires proper airflow. The adequacy of the airflow can be measured

by evaluating the static pressure. Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with

a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer.

Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 0.6 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while the dryer is running with no load.

Checking Levelness

Once the dryer is in its final location, recheck the dryer to be sure it is level. Make sure it is

level front to back and side to side, and that all 4 leveling feet are firmly on the floor.

INSTALLATIONINST UCTIONS

DUCT CONDiTiON TESTING

Your dryer features FlowSense TM, an innovative sensor system that automatically detects

blockages and restrictions in dryer ductwork. Keeping ductwork clean of lint build-up and free

of restrictions allows clothes to dry faster and reduces energy use.

NOTE: When the dryer isfirst installed, this test should be performed to alert you to any existing

problems with the exhaust duct in your home. However, since the test performed during normal

operation provides more accurate information on the condition of the exhaust duct than does the

installation test, the number of bars displayed during the two tests may not be the same. To activate the duct condition test cycle:

NOTE: Dryer heating test must be performed before proceeding. (Gas dryer only)

CHECK THE LINT FILTER BEFORE EVERY LOAD

The CHECK FILTER indicator will light before

each load to remind you to make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a

new load. it will also come on during

a load ifthe lint filter is clogged to let you know that the lint filter needs to be cleaned; a clogged lint filter will increase drying times.

• Combine large and small items in a load. Damp clothes will expand as they dry. Do not

overload the dryer; clothes require room to tumble to dry properly.

Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling on other clothes.

Lint Filter

To clean, pull the lint filter straight up and roll any lint off the filter with your fingers. Do not rinse or wash the filter to remove lint. Push the lint filter
