iMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons when using the washer/dryer, follow basic

precautions, including the following:

[] Read all instructions before using the washer/dryer.

[] Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer.

Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a

chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch fire.

[] Do not wash or dry articles that have been previously

cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, other flammable, or explosive

substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

[] Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other

flammable, or explosive substances to the wash water.

These substances give off vapors that could ignite or

explode.

[] Do not allow children to play on or in the washer/dryer.

Close supervision of children is necessary when the

washer/dryer is used near children.

[] Before the washer/dryer is removed from service or

discarded, remove the doors to the washer/dryer

compartments.

[] Do not reach into the washer/dryer if the tub, agitator or

drum is moving.

[] Do not install or store the washer/dryer where it will be

exposed to the weather.

[] Do not tamper with controls.

[] Clean dryer lint screen before or after each load.

[] Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced

in a hot water system that has not been used for 2 weeks

or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water

system has not been used for such a period, before using

the washing machine, turn on all hot water faucets and let

the water flow from each for several minutes. This will

release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is

flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during

this time.

recommended that a qualified 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

conductor.

DRYER VENTING REQUIREMENTS

If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow

directed downward.

If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than

through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least

2 ft. (610 mm) above surface of roof.

The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1/2" (13 mm)

larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.

Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

Multiple Dryer Venting

A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The

main vent should be sized to remove 200 CFM of air per dryer.

Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in

main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where

the dryers are located should have make-up air equal to or

greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.

Back-draft Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is available from

your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each

dryer to keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to

keep exhaust in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return

air openings are required.

Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in

the direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite

side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from

interfering with the other vents.

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should

be no more than 30°.

DRYER GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Type of Gas

This dryer is equipped for use with natural gas. It is design-

certified by CSA International for LP (propane and butane)

gases with appropriate conversion. No attempt shall be made

to convert dryer from gas specified on serial/rating plate for use

with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier.

Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician.

Gas conversion kit part numbers are listed on gas valve burner

base.

Gas Supply Line

Recommended Method

Flexible Metal Appliance Connector

Provide a gas supply line of 1/2" (13 mm) rigid (IPS) pipe to

dryer location. Pipe joint compounds that resist action of LP

gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON _*_ttape. With LP gas,

piping or tubing size can be 1/2" (13 mm) minimum. Usually, LP

gas suppliers determine size and materials used in the system.

It is recommended that a new flexible stainless steel gas line,

design-certified by CSA International, be used for connecting

the dryer to the gas supply line. (The gas pipe which extends

through the lower rear of the dryer is provided with 3/8"

(10 mm) male pipe thread.)

Gas Supply Pressure Testing

A 1/8" (3 mm) NPT minimum plugged tapping, accessible for

gauge testing, must be installed immediately downstream of

the installed shut-off valve to the dryer (as shown above). The

dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system

during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in

excess of 1/2" psig (352 kg/m2).

Alternate Method

The gas supply may also be connected using 3/8" (10 mm)

approved copper or aluminum tubing. If the total length of

the supply line is more than 20 ft. (6.1 m), larger tubing will

be required.

If using natural gas, do not use copper tubing. Pipe joint

compounds that resist action of type of gas supplied must

be used.

NOTE: Do not kink or damage the flexible stainless steel gas

line when moving the door.

Rigid Pipe Connection

The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe fittings

to obtain an in-line connection to dryer.

Shut=off valve required

The supply line must be equipped with a manual shut-off

valve installed within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of dryer in accordance

with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. This valve should

be located in same room as dryer. It should be in a location

that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access

to shut-off valve. In Canada, an individual manual shut-off

valve must be installed in accordance with the B149 installation

codes CAN/CGA B149.1 and CAN/CGA B149.2.
