Connecting the Inlet Hose (Steam Models)

The dryer must be connected to the cold water tap using the new water supply hose. Do not reuse old hoses.

NOTE

• Water supply pressure must be between 20

and 120 psi (138—827 kPa) .

• Do not strip or cross-thread when connecting

the inlet hose to the valve.

• If the water supply pressure is more than 800

kPa, a pressure-reducing valve should be installed.

• Periodically check the condition of the hose

and replace the hose if necessary.

• Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to

reduce the risk of hose failure.

• Record hose installation or replacement dates

on the hoses for future reference.

Check the rubber seal at each end of the inlet

hoses. Two ru ber seals are supplied with each inlet hose. They are used for preventing water leaks. Make sure the connection to the cold water tap is tight.

d. Connect the long dryer hose to one side of the

Y-connector and connect the washer hose to the other side.

WITHOUT WASHER: If the dryer does not share the cold water tap with a washer.

a. Connect the straight end of the long hose to the

cold water faucet.

NOTE

• Before connecting the water line to the dryer, flush several gallons of water into a drain or bucket. This will help prevent foreign particles such as sand and scale from clogging the dryer inlet valve.

• Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling may result.

Connect the hose to the dryer. Connect the

water supply hose to the dryer inlet valve tightly by hand and then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Make sure that there are no kinks in the hoses and that they are not crushed.

Special Electrical Requirements

(For Mobile or Manufactured Homes)

• Any installation in a manufactured or mobile home must comply with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 or Standard CAN/ CSA Z240 MH and local codes and ordinances. If you are uncertain whether your proposed installation will comply with these standards, please contact a service and installation professional for assistance.

• A 4-wire connection is required for all mobile and manufactured home installations, as well as all new construction after January 1, 1996.

• 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, semi-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 sq. in (163 cm²).

• It is important that the clearance of the duct from any combustible construction be at least 2 inches (5 cm), and when venting the dryer to the outdoors, the dryer should be installed with a clearance of at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) at the sides and back of the dryer.

• Please be aware that venting materials are not supplied with the dryer. You must 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 Installation Test (Duct Check).

Testing Dryer Heating

GAS MODELS

Close the dryer door and press the Power button to turn the dryer on. Press the Time Dry and Start/ Pause buttons to start the test. 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.

ELECTRIC MODELS

Close the dryer door and press the Power button to turn the dryer on. Press the Time Dry and Start/ Pause buttons to start the test. The exhaust air should be warm after the dryer has been operating for 3 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 inch (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 four leveling feet are in firm contact with the floor.

29INSTALLATION

Installation Test (Duct Check)

Once you have completed the installation of the dryer, use this test to make sure the condition of the exhaust system is adequate for proper operation of the dryer. This test should be performed to alert you to any serious problems in the exhaust system of your home.

• Your dryer features Flow Sense™, an innovative sensing system that automatically detects blockages and restrictions in dryer ductwork. Keeping ductwork clean of lint buildup and free of restrictions allows clothes to dry faster and reduces energy use.

NOTE

• The dryer should be cool before starting this test. If the dryer was warmed up during installation, run the Air Dry cycle for a few minutes to reduce the interior temperature.

Activating the Installation Test

Remove the drying rack and literature, and

then close the door.

Do not load anything in the drum for this test, as it may affect the accuracy of the results.

Press the START/PAUSE button.

The dryer will start the test, which will last a few minutes. The heat will be turned on and the temperatures in the drum will be measured.

Check the display for results.

During the test cycle, monitor the Flow Sense™ display on the control panel. If the Flow Sense™ LED has not turned on, when the cycle ends, the exhaust system is adequate. If the exhaust system is severely restricted, the Flow Sense™ LED will turn on. Other problems may also be shown with error codes. See the chart on the next page for error code details and solutions.

and then press the Power button.

(On models with a glass touch control panel, press the Power button then IMMEDIATELY press and hold the Temp. and Signal buttons.)

This button sequence activates the installation test. The code will display if the activation is successful.

30 INSTALLATION

Check the Duct Condition

If the Flow Sense™ LED is turned on, check the exhaust system for restrictions and damage. Repair or replace the exhaust system as needed.

NOTE

• When the dryer is first 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 the installation test, the number of bars displayed during the two tests may not be the same.

• Do not interrupt the test cycle, as this could result in inaccurate results.

• Even if no bars are displayed during the test cycle, some restrictions may still be present in the exhaust system. Refer to the Venting the Dryer section of this manual for complete exhaust system and venting requirements.

• Your dryer features Flow Sense™, an innovative sensing system that automatically detects blockages and restrictions in the dryer ductwork. Keeping ductwork clean of lint buildup and free of restrictions allows clothes to dry faster and reduces energy use.
