LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
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 oor 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.

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 faucets 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 your washer's water
supply by purchasing the necessary parts noted in “Parts
needed.”
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
off 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.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS –
U.S.A. ONLY (SPÉCIFICATIONS
ÉLECTRIQUES – ÉTATS-UNIS
SEULEMENT)
It is your responsibility:
■ To contact a qualied electrical installer.
■ To be sure that the electrical connection is adequate and in
conformance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70 – latest edition and all local codes and ordinances.
The National Electrical Code requires a 4-wire power supply
connection for homes built after 1996, dryer circuits involved
in remodeling after 1996, and all mobile home installations.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:
National Fire Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA 02269.
■ To supply the required 3- or 4-wire, single-phase,
120/240-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only electrical supply
(or 3- or 4-wire, 120/208-volt electrical supply, if specied on
2
2
the serial/rating plate) on a separate 30-amp circuit, fused on
both sides of the line. Connect to an individual branch circuit.
Do not have a fuse in the neutral or grounding circuit.
■ Do not use an extension cord.
■ If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualied electrician determine that
the ground path is adequate.
Electrical Connection
To properly install your dryer, you must determine the type of
electrical connection you will be using and follow the instructions
provided for it here.
■ This dryer is manufactured ready to install with a 3-wire
electrical supply connection. The neutral ground conductor
is permanently connected to the neutral conductor (white wire)
within the dryer. If the dryer is installed with a 4-wire electrical
supply connection, the neutral ground conductor must be
removed from the external ground connector (green screw),
and secured under the neutral terminal (center or white wire)
of the terminal block. When the neutral ground conductor is
secured under the neutral terminal (center or white wire) of the
terminal block, the dryer cabinet is isolated from the neutral
conductor.
■ If local codes do not permit the connection of a neutral
ground wire to the neutral wire, see “Optional 3-wire
connection” section.
■ A 4-wire power supply connection must be used when the
appliance is installed in a location where grounding through
the neutral conductor is prohibited. Grounding through the
neutral is prohibited for (1) new branch-circuit installations,
(2) mobile homes, (3) recreational vehicles, and (4) areas
where local codes prohibit grounding through the neutral
conductors.
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, with a temperature rating
of 140°F (60°C) 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.
6
If your outlet looks like this:
Then choose a 4-wire power supply cord with
ring or spade terminals and UL-listed strain
relief. The 4-wire power supply cord, at least
4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have four 10-gauge
solid copper wires and match a 4-wire
4-wire
receptacle
(14-30R)
receptacle of NEMA-Type 14-30 R. The ground
wire (ground conductor) may be either green or
bare. The neutral conductor must be identied
by a white cover.
If your outlet looks like this:
Then choose a 3-wire power supply cord
with ring or spade terminals and UL-listed
strain relief. The 3-wire power supply cord,
at least 4 ft. (1.22 m) long, must have three
10-gauge solid copper wires and match a
3-wire
receptacle
(10-30R)
3-wire receptacle of NEMA-Type 10-30R.
If connecting by direct wire:
Power supply cable must match power supply (4-wire or 3-wire)
and be:
■ Flexible armored cable or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable
(with ground wire), covered with exible metallic conduit. All
current-carrying wires must be insulated.
■ 10-gauge solid copper wire (do not use aluminum) at
least 5 ft. (1.52 m) long.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
■
For a grounded, cord-connected dryer:
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock
by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
This dryer is equipped with a cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
WARNING:Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualied electrician or service representative
or personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the dryer is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with
the dryer: if it will not t the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.

GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
GAS TYPE
Natural Gas:
This dryer is equipped for use with Natural gas. It is certied by
UL for use with propane gas with appropriate conversion.
■ Your dryer must have the correct burner for the type of gas in
your home. Burner information is located on the rating plate in
the door well of your dryer. If this information does not agree
with the type of gas available, contact your dealer or call the
phone numbers referenced in the “Assistance or Service”
section of your Use and Care Guide.
Propane Gas Conversion:
IMPORTANT: Conversion must be made by a qualied
technician.
No attempt shall be made to convert the dryer from the gas
specied on the model/serial rating plate for use with a
different gas without consulting your gas company.
GAS SUPPLY LINE
Option 1 (Recommended Method)
Flexible stainless steel gas connector:
■ If local codes permit, use a new exible stainless steel gas
connector (Design Certied by the American Gas Association
or CSA International) to connect your dryer to the rigid gas
supply line. Use an elbow and a 3/8" (9.5 mm) are x 3/8"
(9.5 mm) NPT adapter tting between the stainless steel
gas connector and the dryer gas pipe as needed to prevent
kinking.
Option 2 (Alternate Method)
Approved aluminum or copper tubing:
■ Must include 1/8" (3 mm) NPT minimum plugged tapping
accessible for test gauge connection, immediately upstream
of the gas connection to the dryer.
■ 1/2" (12.7 mm) IPS pipe is recommended.
■ 3/8" (9.5 mm) approved aluminum or copper tubing is
acceptable for lengths under 20 ft. (6.1 m) if local codes and
gas supplier permit.
■ If you are using Natural gas, do not use copper tubing.
