Gas supply: Dryer is equipped for use with NATURAL gas. Dryer can be converted to L.P. gas. When rigid pipe is used it should be 1/2 inch IPS. When acceptable to the gas supplier and local codes, 3/8-inch approved tubing may be used for lengths under 20 feet. For lengths over 20 feet, larger tubing should be used. Pipe-joint compounds resistant to the action of L.P. gas must be used. If local codes permit, it is recommended that new flexible metal tubing, design-certified by AGA or CSA, be used for connecting the appliance to the rigid gas supply line. (The gas pipe which extends through the lower rear of the appliance has 3/8-inch male pipe thread.) An individual manual shutoff valve must be installed within 6 feet of the dryer in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.
Electrical: A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15- or 20-ampere, fused on both sides of the line. A separate circuit serving only this appliance is recommended. A time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.
Exhaust venting: Exhaust your dryer to the outside. four-inch diameter vent is required. Rigid or flexible metal exhaust vent must be used. Do Not use plastic or metal foil vent. Exhaust outlet hood must be at least 12 inches from the ground or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust.
