Part 3 INITIAL STEPS FOR INSTALLING YOUR DRYER

through the initial steps of setting up your dryer for use. provides important information regarding the preparation and review this entire manual before proceeding with any

concerning electrical connections, gas connections, and of this manual.

STEP 1 Positioning the Dryer.

Choose a location with a solid floor for your dryer. Place the dryer at least eighteen inches above the floor for a garage installation. After placing the dryer in the desired location, please make sure that it has the required clearances shown below, and sections on Exhaust and Maintenance requirements. If you are installing your dryer in a manufactured or mobile home, please refer to STEP 9 below for additional instructions.

49.8” (126.4 cm)

38.7” (98.3 cm)

27”	29.9”
(68.6 cm)	(76.1 cm)

Certain minimum clearances are required above, behind,and to the sides of the unit,as shown below. Those required minimum clearances are set forth in the picture below. Please also keep the following instructions in mind when installing in a closet or recessed area:

•Consider allowing additional clearance for installation and servicing.

•Wall,door and floor molding may forceadditional clearances.

•An additional inch of clearance is recommended to minimize noise transfer

•Consider space needed for companion appliances.

•See installation instructions for complete instructions.

•Failure to do so can result in fire or electrical shock.

STEP 6 Preparation of the Dryer.

Prior to the first use of this appliance, use allpurpose cleaning products or a solution of detergent

STEP 7 Confirming Heat Source

Operation.

Confirming Heat Source in Gas Dryers

Close the door to the dryer drum/drying compartment and, after completing all steps in this manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in the operating instructions that accompany the dryer. After the dryer starts, the igniter will glow red and the main burner will ignite.

Warning: If all air is not purged from the gas line, the gas igniter may go off before the gas and the main burner have ignited. If this happens, the igniter will re-attempt gas ignition after approximately two minutes.

Confirming Heat Source in Electric Dryers

Close the door to the dryer drum/drying compartment and, after completing all steps in this manual for proper installation of this dryer, start the dryer on a heat setting, as described more fully in the operating instructions that accompany the dryer. The exhaust air or the exhaust pipe should be warm after the dryer has been operating for three minutes.

STEP 8 Dryer Airflow.

Effective dryer operation requires appropriate dryer 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 inches (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked with the dryer running with no load.

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 service and installation professional for assistance.

The following instructions apply to any installation of the dryer in a manufactured or mobile home:

1)The gas dryer must be permanently attached to the floor.

2)The electrical connection for an electric dryer must be a 4-wire connection. More detailed information concerning the electrical connection is provided at the manual section entitled Electrical Requirements for Electric Dryer

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

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

5)Gas dryers may be vented to the outside using the back, left, or bottom panel. Gas dryer may not be vented to the outside using the right side panel because of the burner housing.

6)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, and it is recommended that you use a rigid or flexible metal pipe.

7)DO NOT connect the exhaust duct with any other duct, vent, chimney, or other exhaust duct.

8)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).

9)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 can be installed with a clearances of 1 inch at the sides and back of the dryer.

10)Please be aware that venting materials are not supplied with the dryer. You should obtain the venting materials necessary for proper installation.

! WARNING!

DO NOT connect exhaust ducts with metal screws or fasteners that extend into the duct.

! WARNING!

DO NOT vent the exhaust duct under the manufactured or mobile home.

Stacking Kit Installation Instructions

To ensure safe and secure installation, please observe the instructions below.

WARNING

Incorrect Installation can cause serious accidents.

The weight of the dryer and the height of installation makes the stacking procedure too risky for one person. This procedure should be performed by 2 or more experienced service personnel.

Stacking kit

4 Secure stacking kit side bracket to the washer with a screw on the back of bracket. Repeat Steps 2, 3, 4 for the other side.

5 Place the dryer on top of the washer by fitting legs as shown in the picture. Avoid finger injuries - be careful not to pinch fingers between the washer and dryer. Slide washer slowly backwards to the stopper of kit.

Place washer firmly on a stable, even and solid floor.

Peel protective paper off the tape stacking kit side bracket.

6 Insert the front stacking kit. Push the front stacking kit back to the stoppers of side stacking kit.

3 Fit the stacking kit side bracket firmly to the side of top plate by attaching the doublefaced tape to top plate as picture shows.
