Gas supply requirements:
As shipped from the factory, this dryer is configured for use with natural gas. It can be
converted for use with LP (Liquefied Propane) gas. Gas pressure must not exceed 13 in.
water column.
A qualified service or gas company technician
must connect the dryer to the gas service.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or
death.
Isolate the dryer from the gas supply system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
Supply line requirements:
Your laundry room must have a rigid gas supply line to your dryer. In the United States,
an individual manual shutoff valve MUST be
installed within at least 6 ft. (1,8 m) of the dryer, in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code
ANSI Z223,1, A 1/8-in, NPT pipe plug must
be installed. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
If using a rigid pipe, the rigid pipe should be
1/2-in. IPS. If acceptable under local codes
and ordinances and when acceptable to your gas supplier, 3/8-in. approved tubing may be
used where lengths are less than 20 ft. (6.1 m). Larger tubing should be used for lengths
in excess of 20 ft. (6.1 m). Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
Connect the dryer to the type of gas shown on the nameplate. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
To prevent contamination of the gas valve,
purge the gas supply of air and sediment before connecting the gas supply to the dryer.
Before tightening the connection between the
gas supply and the dryer, purge remaining air
until the odor of gas is detected. Failure to do
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
DO NOT use an open flame to inspect for gas
leaks. Use a noncorrosive leak-detection fluid. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or
death.
Use only a new AGA- or CSA-certified gas
supply line with flexible stainless steel
connectors. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
Securely tighten all gas connections. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
Use Teflon ®tape or a pipe-joint compound that
is insoluble in Liquefied Petroleum (LP) gas on
all pipe threads. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
DO NOT attempt any disassembly of the dryer;
any disassembly requires the attention and tools of an authorized and qualified service
person or company. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.

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/CSAOZ240 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 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.
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.
ELECTRIC MODELS
Close the dryer door, press the ON/OFF switch to turn the dryer on, and start the dryer on a heat
setting. 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 in. (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while the dryer is running with no load.
Checking Le velness
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.

LOADING THE DRYER
_WARNING -= TOreduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using this appliance, follow basic precautions, including the following:
Check all pockets to make sure that they are
empty. Items such as clips, pens, coins, and keys can damage both your dryer and your
clothes. Flammable objects such as lighters or matches could ignite, causing a fire.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
Never dry clothes that have been exposed to
oil, gasoline, or other flammable substances. Washing clothes will not completely remove
oil residues. Failure to obey this warning can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
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 dry properly.
Close zippers, hooks, and drawstrings to prevent these items from snagging or tangling
on other clothes.
CHECK THE LINT FILTER BEFORE EVERY LOAD
Always make sure the lint filter is clean before starting a new load; a clogged lint filter will increase drying times.
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
firmly back into place. See "Care and Cleaning" for more information.
