Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions

IMPORTANT: The stacked washer/dryer can be installed in

an enclosure. Check the locations of the water supply faucets, grounded electrical outlets, and gas supply line connection (gas dryer only). Depending on your application, longer washer ll hoses, longer electric power supply cords and a longer exible stainless steel gas connector line than supplied with the washer/dryer may be needed.

Mobile home - Additional installation requirements

This dryer is suitable for mobile home installations. The installation must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR, Part 3280 (formerly the Federal Standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD Part 280) or the Canadian Manufactured Home Standard CAN/CSA-Z240 MH.
